Description
In an unnamed city that never truly sleeps, a taxi driver known only as Fly moves through the night’s shifting light, collecting passengers whose stories expose the city’s hidden machinery. As his episodic rides draw him toward political activism and moral compromise, Fly is forced to confront what he owes to others—and what he can still save in himself. With lyrical, unflinching prose, Rawi Hage turns urban chaos into a stage for identity, redemption, and the search for meaning amid desperation. A novel of human connection at the margins, it asks how justice is pursued when the rules are broken and survival comes first.
