The best works by the literati in countries like Egypt, Algeria and Palestine are mustered in the book and are analyzed in details in the first part of the book.
Les Misérables by Victor Hugo is introduced in the second part as one of the best novels in resistance literature which was written as an objection to social miseries in France in the 19th century.
Works by German, Spanish and French writers and poets are also assessed in the book.
