Career[edit]
Throughout his career in the writing and publishing world, the Saudi writer Ahmed Al-Hokail published a number of story collections and books, the most notable of which is “Roads and Cities” (Arabic title: Toriq and Modyn) which is 237 pages and is published by Dar Sophia Publishing and Distribution, also “Lines” (Arabic title: Kotoot) which is 208 pages and is published by Arab Scientific Publishers, and its the book that talks about the relationship between writing, life and death.[4] This novel was characterized by the fact that, according to critics, Ahmed rebelled against the rules of storytelling, instead he relied on vision, interpretation and meaning, to leave the reader’s imagination with room for probability. The novle is about Saud Al-Khouzaimi, a journalist and poet as young as 30 who did not know his father Abdul Muhsin Al-Khouzaimi.[5] His father left him with his dying mother to pursue an imaginary whim, he left them 29 years ago at Saud's grandfather and uncles’ house in the town of Al-Majma’ah, and when Saud was only one year old, declaring his intention to leave even though no one knew where, or why. He spent his life telling everyone with confidence that his father was dead, and his uncles wouldn’t mind his hypothetical attitude to the man who threw their sick sister to die after four years of suffering, left his only child with no obvious reason to disappear, and then years go by without a mention of him.[6]
Al-Hokail published “Circles” (Arabic title: Dawa’ir) which is 288 pages and published by Centre Cultural Arabe, where the author addresses the spiritual- religious realities by summoning the Egyptian figure of Hajar,[7] who lived long in the Pharaonic Empire and then lined with Quranic connotation. In particular, the significance of the land that Hajar lived in after she was throw with her son Ismael into a ruined valley by Ibrahim. The writer tried to find a lot in common between Hajar and the protagonists of another novel, who don’t arrive in Mecca but in a barren dessert where a woman runs from mountain to mountain, leaving her baby son crying in the sand.
Opinions[edit]
Ahmed Al-Hokail believes that “rituals, inspiration, and reading are necessary, but they are linked to certain situations and are formed naturally, not canned or defined, but dictated by needs, circumstances, and moods and is not pursued, and production is inevitable and not tied to it.”
Al-Hokail confirms that he edits allot, and that everything written in his texts and novels is deliberate, and rarely unintentional, by contrast he deletes a little while editing drafts, yet Ahmed Al-Hokail re-reads more than once, and he says the he deletes and increases in a narrow range.[8]
