Description

Meeting a friend after many years' separation, the narrator wonders whether the events they both lived through in Lebanon really took place.

Time and distance give a sense of unreality but when the narrator and Ali meet at Heathrow Airport, after seventeen years, the past slowly begins to unfold.Like so many other Palestinians who were born in the Lebanon, they had to leave in the mid-1980s, when it became a battlefield for different militias and armies - Lebanese, Palestinian, Israeli and Syrian.

Ali leaves for America and, two years later, the narrator leaves for London.Their memories are concentrated on one fatal night when they and two other friends are together for the last time, before tragedy strikes.

But for the narrator, a personal tragedy had struck much earlier, one which he would never forget and could not share.
