Perhaps her writing style in this novel, or in her previous short story collection, reflects this look toward the future; her style is open to continuous new beginnings. Observe her writing technique in this novel, compare it to her style in the short story collection, or her earlier reflections before this collection, what do you find? You find consistency, and you find transformation within this consistency. It is the creative secret of Soumaya. Read everything she has written, you strongly feel her personal presence in it. True, you will not find Soumaya herself, but you will find the Soumaya born from Soumaya. If this means anything, it means that you will not notice in her writing the shadow of any great writer she basks in their bliss. Soumaya the bee was able to internalize all the nectar she found in the greats' flowers, reproduced it as her honey, and it is no other. Although this honey requires a patient taster, not in haste, who can exert the sufficient effort needed to internalize that honey and recognize its unique flavor. Dr. Ali Mehdi Zeitoun.
