Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Beneath the sun-scorched fronds of early twentieth-century Bahrain lies a world caught in the violent crucible of transformation. Old Manama and the dusty lanes of Sari village hum with quiet tension: ancient folklore clashes with the modern machinery of empire, while the unyielding grip of the British Advisor reshapes the island's laws and destiny under the banner of the Mandate. From the shadowy fringes of Grand Road-where an orphaned child is pulled into the world under ominous omens-to the arduous toil of date palm groves and burning limestone kilns, intertwining lives navigate survival, faith, and defiance. A devoted medical missionary struggles to anchor divine compassion in a suspicious land; an aging father clings to his ancestral soil and the prophetic whisper of a fabled pearl nurtured deep within the crown of the palms; and a son rises from poverty, forced to confront the dark secrets of colonial dominance when tragedy strikes at the heart of his family. When lines blur between enduring regional superstitions and calculated political intrigue, an unsolved disappearance sets off a perilous pursuit through forbidden alleyways, quiet courts, and rising national discontent. Awalia: The Tale of a Palm Tree that Nurtured Genie Pearl is a sweeping, evocative work of historical fiction. Rich in cultural authenticity and raw human drama, it portrays the unyielding resilience of those who refuse to be forgotten, showing that even in the bleakest seasons of subjugation, the roots of dignity run deeper than the reach of empires.
