Summary:
  

Young Jawad, born to a traditional Shi'ite family of corpse washers and shrouders in Baghdad, decides to abandon the family tradition, choosing instead to become a sculptor, to celebrate life rather than tend to death. He enters Baghdad's Academy of Fine Arts in the late 1980s, in defiance of his father's wishes and determined to forge his own path. But the circumstances of history dictate otherwise.

Saddam Hussein's dictatorship and the economic sanctions of the 1990s destroy the socioeconomic fabric of society. The 2003 invasion and military occupation unleash sectarian violence. Corpses pile up, and Jawad returns to the inevitable washing and shrouding. Trained as an artist to shape materials to represent life aesthetically, he now must contemplate how death shapes daily life and the bodies of Baghdad's inhabitants.

Through the struggles of a single desperate family, Sinan Antoon's novel shows us the heart of Iraq's complex and violent recent history. Descending into the underworld where the borders between life and death are blurred and where there is no refuge from unending nightmares, Antoon limns a world of great sorrows, a world where the winds wail.

: الكلمات
عضام الرقبة لمّا ما تخلّيك تشوف وراك، اكسرا
إذا ربحك بخسارة أيد اليمين، عادي اخسرا
إذا سند ضهرك رمح إصحا تتكي عليه
ولا تبكي عليه إن مات الكان روحك آسرا
صح الله واحد، ابليس كمان
و ما ركّع سمّوه شيطان
لعبة إعلام هي من زمان
تفّاح مسمّ ليه بجنّة كان ؟
هيداك المرض، مجهول
ما غلبه المال، خافوه
ما لقوا تفسير، عبدوه
والموت
كيف بتهدّد فيه إذا الموت حقّ عالكلّ ؟
كيف بدعي الناس تثور و بكلّ نفس الي في ذلّ ؟
ليش خايف إنطحن من وحش بإيدي بغذّيه ؟
خايف انطعن من خاين و ببيتي بلفّيه

كتبت كتير  كبّيت
كبتت كتير و بكيت
كسرت كتير و لفّيت
كلّه كان عبث
كتبت كتير  كبّيت
كبتت كتير و بكيت
كسرت كتير و لفّيت
كلّه كان عبث

كبتت كتير و بكيت
كسرت كتير و لفيت
كتبت كتير و كبيت 
كلّه كان عبث
كتبت كتير كبيت
كتبت كتير و كبيت
كسرت كتير ولفيت

كلّ ما نام ببيتي ليلة في طفل بشارع بيموت
كلّ ما بوس أمّي أم بتبوس التابوت
كل ما سكّر بابي في بيت عم ينقصف
كلّ ما خنق صدر عاري للقناص هدف
بنبسط بالشتي و في خيام بيجرفا السيل
بتمشى بالشمس و ناس الشمس براسا ويل
كل ما فيق  بتزيد المجازر وحدة
كل ما احلم شوف بنتي، بنت فوق جثة بوها تحدي
عندي حلم ؟ قال إيه
في عيلة حلما رغيف
عندي وجع راس و روس طفال تسن السيف
جواتي تافه، قلي الله راضي
عمر الظلم بعمر الدني واللي تاعب روحك عادي
طافر ساكت عم يتجسس
يبزق بوجهي كل ما ظالم عم يتنفس
طافر، عنده الحق ما في لبس
جلّادك جلدك يا ناصر و عضامك حيطان الحبس.. قلّي.
