This book aims to clarify the condition of humans in contemporary literature by understanding deconstruction as an event that occurs at the root of every happening, not waiting for permission from an active subject, awareness, or organization. Deconstruction is not something brought from outside the literary work under examination. It naturally occurs at the core; necessitating dual reading and writing—a dual commitment—to observe moments of fragmentation in the shaping of the literary work, not to deliberately dismantle and abandon it, but to precisely stand on the structure as it collapses at its creation moment. With this dual commitment, Hossam Nael begins a lesson in meaning, presence, and truth, self-forgetting, and negated identity, a lesson in writing and experiencing nothingness during the dissolution of symbolic systems, the movement of impact and sharing rights; examining the structures of meaning and their lingering illusions through their ontophilological operation in bodily balance and the gift of the impossible, the woman's giving and the deferred experience of difference; reaching the origin of writing and writing the origin, bringing us to the moment of transformation from an ideal economy of logos—after spontaneously displaying its deconstruction—to a material economy that swirls the literary insight into a lost vision requiring the presence of nothingness.
