Khama narrates a story with the background of Kurds’ riot. The hero of the novel, Khalil, has witnessed what they were forced to do. The novel on the one hand has a historical, social and political background, and on the other hand has psychological bases. The story goes back to the old tradition in the rural community, according to which, in the event of the husband’s death, the wife must wait until her deceased husband’s younger brother marries her and does not have the opportunity to live with anyone other than him.
