Can a person live without memory? Under the authority of a mass epidemic reminiscent of the atmosphere of the Portuguese Saramago in his masterpiece "Blindness," people''s memories are disrupted, including the heroes of this novel, which Ahmed Al-Dossari opens with the key phrase: "Warning... The blessing is a blessing... We are all now unaffiliated." The loss of memory intersects with the attempt of ideology in the Arab countries to formulate a policy without a past, and to establish a present on gelatinous identities: From the heart of the "wounded Arab name," in the words of the Moroccan thinker Abdelkebir Khatibi, the novel poses its difficult questions in existence, politics, and art in a manner not devoid of fantasy: "Memories." Conscripted soldiers, an infantryman, in a city that he did not know, or that did not recognize him... He wondered like a bird that fell from a tree: Why does the city not call him if it has not lost its memory as well?
