Uniqueness of Writing & Treatment
Who Dares Pour Fresh Air in The Moon Lung tackles all rapid radical changes in the contemporary world of wars and spoil with unique poetic narrative, as an attempt to express human loud protest as against whatever man-made ore man-written. It also try to defy the overall destruction armament of the late 20th and threshold 21st centuries. This is done by adopting different narrative structure, depending on transferring reality into a mythical realm, and the traditional myths and mythological symbols into the context of the human experience whether evolving or deteriorating in the context of the historic track.
This all functions as a loud cry and call for the necessity of inaugurating a different world with different eyes and insights
both in leading life and in writing literature. In Who Dares Pour Fresh Air in The Moon Lung a place is no place, a time is no time, a person is no person; a loose world which Bashar Abdulah describes in his prelude: "It makes no difference if the main idea is lost inside a world everything is lost therein". So, the main idea here is the equivalent of the Value vs. our world.
