[No longer updating because the original book's religious content is sensitive]
[This is not an original novel. It is a Chinese translation of the English novel The Road to Chlifa, originally written in French.]
1. I'm translating at a snail's pace and can't promise daily updates.
2. I've seen lots of students online who needed this book for schoolwork but were too lazy to read it in English, so I decided to do the world a favor.
3. This isn't 100% faithful to the original. It's not Google Translate or AI translation: I translated it myself, and sometimes took artistic liberties, but I won't stray too far.
The story takes place in the 1990s.
Karim once loved a girl. But in war-torn Lebanon, she was suddenly buried beneath tiles shattered by an artillery shell.
Karim had also loved that girl's younger sister, Mahu, a liar whom no one had ever given a second glance in twelve years. He had promised to take her away from the capital, Beirut, to a place called Chlifa, where they could seek refuge. But when they were just one step from their destination, Mahu died too...
