In the book Beautiful Alienation, untold stories in a related context, about the collapse of the middle class and the urban bourgeoisie in Iraq, and the resulting rise of the values of political-cultural-social fundamentalism, so that alienation seems to have actually been achieved in terms of crushing and isolation to the point of failure and complete alienation. Here is a revival of the impact of those dreamers who shook with their intellectual and spiritual strength, and even with the strength of their realistic modernization projects, those heavy pillars of the movement of their societies, those who faced the question with courage: “Why does the intellectual in the Arab world feel that he is at the forefront of his changing society, and at the same time feel that he is a stranger to it, no matter how much he adopts the ambitions of this society and devotes himself to its desires? Why does the intellectual feel that his energy is wasted and that in the midst of the conflicting forces within his society he has become the least important of all these forces?”
