Arab intellectuals gather in the cafes of exile, sharing their bitter tears of despair and sip cups of wandering and homelessness in a country they once considered a warmer embrace than the cemetery of their East. Driven by a desire to avenge their ambitions against the corruption of its regimes and politicians, they discover that they are strangers, annihilated wherever they go, "suspended in the void between here and there." A visionary, enlightening, multi-voiced novel whose notes rise and fall in a symphony in which art, literature, and culture are composed between East and West.
