Explanation of the book
Number of pages: 84 pages
May, the struggling writer who lived what she wrote, and her full life was the best of what she left behind. She was observant, pleasant in company, and contented, and loved fun, laughter, and movement. But she was strange in spirit, lonely in heart, and inclined toward isolation, so she would isolate herself, sigh, complain, write, and envy the fluttering birds around her; chirping as she pleased, free and unfettered. She did not content herself with reading Gibran, but rather began to clarify his biography and circumstances with serious interest, as if she wanted to discover the authentic spring that sparked that product. It occurred to her to write to him, but how could she do so when she did not know him? After much hesitation, she took her pen and wrote her first letter to Gibran. That was on March 29, 1912. May’s letters should be preserved because they are a beautiful type of epistolary literature in Arabic literature. In French literature, there are letters by the likes of Flaubert, Voltaire, and others, and in these letters you can study the writer more than in his works. She was widely informed, with vast features, and her personality was independent through her thoughts and writings.
