The Harvest (Arabic: القطاف) is a novel by Syrian writer Hanna Minh, published in 1986.[1]
About the novel[edit]
The Harvest is the third and final part of the autobiographical trilogy of Syrian novelist Hanna Minh. (Part I: remains of photos, Part II: The Swamp).[2]
Summary[edit]
He continues from where he left off in The Swamp, Minh begins the novel with the family returning to Latakia after Syria lost the Iskandorn brigade. The events of the novel and its title come from the olive farms and the season of harvest. While the image of the mother in this part maintains the same purity and aura that Minh surrounded her in the previous two parts, We find a change in his talk about his father, the father who used to say about him in the remains of photos, "the one who has mastered nothing, neither virtue nor vice," we see him describe in “The harvest” by saying, " My father does not know what fear is, he was a sailor.”[1]
Criticism[edit]
Some critics criticized the shift in Hanna's attitude towards his father, some explaining this by Hanna's response to his older sister's “Qudsiyah” denunciation and her severe punishment for what he wrote about their father in the previous two parts, others argue that the nine years between “the harvest” and “the swamp” were the reason the writer made mistakes such as repetition and inconsistency. Regardless of the reason, this repetition and contradiction contributed to what critics see as a decline in the level of the trilogy and the destruction of the credibility of the novelist and the father figure, who excelled in describing its dimensions as a model of patriarchy, turning in “the harvest” into a folk hero.[1]
