3 quotes from The Return by Hisham Matar

"We are only as good as the stories we tell ourselves, and the truth often lies in the setbacks we face and the resilience we forge from them."
"The silence that surrounds a missing person is a painful space, and within it lies the profound need to fill that void with understanding and acceptance."
"Home is not just a place; it is a range of emotions, memories, and an unbroken connection to the past that continually shapes who we are."

Author : Hisham Matar

Hisham Matar is a critically acclaimed author born in New York City, where his father represented Libya at the United Nations. At the age of three, his family returned to Tripoli, but their lives were dramatically altered in 1979 when they fled to Egypt due to political persecution under the Ghaddafi regime. Matar and his brother completed their education in Cairo before relocating to London, where he earned a degree in architecture. The disappearance of his father, a political dissident kidnapped in Cairo in 1990, profoundly shaped Matar's work and themes. His literary journey began with poetry and theatre, culminating in his debut novel, *In the Country of Men,* published in 2006 to critical acclaim and commercial success.
