Longing for Belonging
The desire to belong is a fundamental human need, one that connects us all. Yet today, more than ever, many of us carry a quiet sense of lostness, a disconnection from the world around us. Longing for Belonging sets out to explore what it truly means to belong. Through deeply personal storytelling, it invites the reader on a reflective journey, a trip through Egypt that began as a search for a place to belong and it gradually reveals itself as something deeper.
The book is designed as both a narrative and a visual experience, rooted in duality. It opens from both directions English from the left, Arabic from the right allowing each language to exist on its own terms. They meet in the center, where photographs create a shared, silent language.
