“The first great Saudi novel.” —
The New York Sun
Banned in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, this provocative, fast-paced debut novel confirms what
The Washington Post
reported about its award-winning author: "Yousef Al-Mohaimeed is taking on some of the most divisive subjects in the Arab world . . . in a lush style that evokes Gabriel García Márquez."
In a Riyadh bus station, a man comes across a file containing official reports about an abandoned baby. As he pieces together the shattered life documented within, a larger picture emerges of three outsiders—a Bedouin, an orphan, and a eunuch-linked by fate and trying to make lives for themselves in a predatory city.
Unfolding with the intensity of a fever dream over the course of one night,
Wolves of the Crescent Moon
is a novel of astonishing power and great moral consequence about a deeply traditional society confronting the modern world.
