His stories, filled with nostalgia and the bitterness of exile, deal with the common experiences of Yemenis like himself who are caught between cultures by the displacements of civil war or labor migration. His characters include women left behind, children raised without fathers, and men returning home after years of absence. He explores the human condition through the eyes of the oppressed and disenfranchised and is particularly sympathetic to the plight of women. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Introduction \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Land, Salma \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Road to Asmara \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Slap \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Color of Rain \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Saturday Market \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Last Class \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Abu Rupee \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nothing New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ya Khabiir \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A Woman \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e China Road \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Ghoul \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Brother, Are You Going to Fight Them All? \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e They Die Strangers \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Ctr for Middle Eastern Studies UT-Austin","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52743743570200,"sku":"9780292705081","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/they-die-strangers-paperback-softback-9780292705081","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
