Translated to Arabic, «The Narrow Road to the Deep North», a 2013 novel by Australian author Richard Flanagan. Winner of the 2014 Man Booker Prize. Translated to Arabic by Khalid al-Jubaili.

August, 1943. In the despair of a Japanese POW camp on the Thai-Burma death railway, Australian surgeon Dorrigo Evans is haunted by his love affair with his uncle's young wife two years earlier. Struggling to save the men under his command from starvation, from cholera, from beatings, he receives a letter that will change his life forever. This savagely beautiful novel is a story about the many forms of love and death, of war and truth, as one man comes of age, prospers, only to discover all that he has lost.
