We Are All Equally Far From Love
ByPublisher Description
A new award-winning novel from the acclaimed author of Touch. A young woman, asked at work to write a letter to an older man, does as she is told. So begins an enigmatic but passionate love affair conducted entirely in letters. A love affair? Maybe. Until his letters stop coming. Or… maybe the letters do not reach their intended recipient? Only the teenage Afaf, who works at the local post office, would know. Her favorite duty is to open the mail and inform her collaborator father of the contents—until she finds a mysterious set of love letters, apparently returned to their sender. In the hands of Adania Shibli, the discovery of these letters makes for a wrenching meditation on lives lived ensnared within the dictates of others.

“First time aku baca buku dan aku rasa lonely se lonely lonely nya. A 108 pages of book tentang how a woman battle with her own loneliness. She doesn't know how to love and to receive love when someone love her. Even dalam keluarga pun menerima cinta itu sangat aneh. Sentiasa berperasaan semua orang hidup untuk menentang dia. Menentang kasih sayang yang dia berikan dan tidak mahu menerima kasih sayang dari yang lain. Mungkin akibat dari trauma ketidaksetiaan (is there such word?) dari bapanya yang menjadi permulaan kepada pertarungan melawan loneliness ini. Ketika membacanya, aku sempat menyanyikan lagu my loneliness is killing me, and i. I must confess i still believe (still believe). Ok setakst itu sahaja.”
