Most of the stories in the collection, regardless of their literary value, reflect rebellion against the common elements of the short story, to the extent that they mix with other forms of literary expression. According to Al-Jabur, the book also shows many of the recent issues facing the Arab world as a whole, in particular political realities and their developments.
