I Will Judge You from Your Roommate
In her vibrant new story collection, I Will Judge You from Your Roommate, Fatima J. Alharthi explores the fundamental question of identity assertion: “who am I?” It challenges collectivism while embracing the imperfect traits of being human. The settings vary from Saudi Arabia, the Aegean Sea, Kenya, and Syria, but the uneasy drive to anchor the self is the overarching theme of these stories regardless of geographical location.
