أنا وأخواتها

A journey into the same mysteries

"Me and Her Sisters" is an exploratory journey into the depths of one's self, trying to remove the "powders" of artificiality and the rubble of neglect, and shed light on the gray area between the truth of the self and its image, groping with the reader for ways to get out of the circle of hypertrophy of the "I", in a manner similar to "shock" therapy. The book - which is about 360 pages - is the most recent of Al-Awda's books, and in it he discusses - perhaps for the first time in detail - the concept of "self-criticism" and "openness" and the disclosure of the truth about the soul and the extent of its insignificance or exaggeration. Rather, the ordinary person has to get rid of the tyranny of the "I" and its power over others, or is the issue not exceeding - only - the mask that the person wears at times in front of society to prove artificial humility, and at other times in front of the mirror to hide his inflated truth from himself! "Me and Her Sisters" includes 48 titles, all of which revolve around the scope of the human psyche, in an easy style and graceful formulation, which often begins in an anecdotal way and then continues to present the problem in all its aspects, passing through different life experiences, and ending with solutions, revealing the precursors of self-aggrandizement and its hidden tyranny, in addition to more From the aspects surrounding it, such as pretense, fear, addiction, love, hesitation, shyness, despair, imagination, fame, freedom, talent, doubt, and everything that surrounds its aspects.
