The novel's protagonist, Miriam, is a young woman who escaped the Lebanese civil war, whose family left the country and found refuge in Australia after the tragic death of her son, Miriam's younger brother. For Miriam, the fifteen years of emigration passed unnoticed, moving between Australia and Kenya, although the difficult past inevitably followed her memory everywhere. This past is the collective past of her family - a tragic story of people who suffered severe pain. The notification of the Ministry of IDPs and Displaced Persons of Lebanon about the return of their family home in Beirut made Miriam decide to go to her homeland.
On the way to the airport, he meets Noor, whose father is Palestinian and whose mother is Lebanese, who came from America in search of his roots in Lebanon, who has almost forgotten his early childhood spent in Palestine and Lebanon and can't remember anything except the smells of oriental dishes. Nuri also returns to the Middle East in search of her past. In search of his own place, he has a feeling that he does not belong anywhere - neither in the countries of his childhood nor in the country where he grew up. Self-searching reveals even more unanswered questions for both of them, makes them feel more foreign and lonely, and intensifies existential anxiety. The war is over, but the war stories aren't over yet! - This is the favorite ending of the contemporary Lebanese writer Iman Humaidan, when the novel ends but the story does not, and the author makes the reader expect that the stories left behind the story will continue.
