The observed door

In his book "The Observed Door," Omar Fakhoury presents his vision of many artistic issues, most notably his position on poetry, which he raises with an urgent question: "Should the poet glorify his first creations, as some poets did, and not deny the shortcomings of what they wrote, or should he look at them?" With an eye for criticism and hiding it in the background of his creative output?This type of intellectual and artistic questioning is present in most of the book''s articles, whether about cinema, painting, or art in general. He criticizes what he sees about morality, life, and literature, expressing his ruling in one of his articles by saying: "Do you want true literature? So let us abandon false modesty, and you want Moral reform? So let''s put aside social hypocrisy."
