A review by futaims
Celestial Bodies by Jokha Alharthi

3.0

This novel gave close insight on the generational shifts in Oman during some of the major economic developments in the late 1900's, with a special focus on family bonds and cultural values. I enjoyed Abdullah's chapters the most because he told his side of the story with sheer vulnerability. However, wasn't fond of the writing style, the constant shifts in POVs and timelines made it difficult to maintain the plot.
