نقطة النور

يفتح بهاء طاهر نوافذ الفكر مشرعة على الاستقراءات الاجتماعية وحتى التاريخية ويدني القارئ أكثر وأكثر للاشتفافات الروحية. تنطلق عباراته شفافة في مدى الجانب الصوفي، وتأتي معانيه مترعة بالشوق واللهفة إلى بلوغ مراتب السموّ على دروب معالج السالكين. تتآلف هذه كله دونما نفور عند انعطافه للحديث عن الجسد وعن الإنسان بحالاته البشرية. وتتخذ هذه كلها لتشكل نقطة نور تضيء النفس بروعة الخيال الروائي المحتفل بعرس الحياة. هكذا يتحف بهاء طاهر القارئ بروايته "نقطة النور" المستمدة من واقع الحياة، ونقطة النور إنما هي رمز فلسفي يجسد فكرة تصالح الإنسان مع ذاته.



الناس أجناس و النفوس لباس، و من تلبّس نفسا من غير جنسه.. وقع في الالتباس

کتاب درباره خانواده ها و روابط اون ها با نزدیکان و خانوادشون در کشور های خاورمیانه است، خیلی دقیق و قشنگ توضیح داده که یک پدر چقدر میتونه از دخترش دور بشه و اصلا دخترشو حین بزرگ شدن نشناسه، یکی از ایراد هایی که کتاب داشت این بود که خیلی داستان رو کش داده بود و بهش پر و بال داده بود زیادی که یه کم داستان رو خسته کننده کرده بود.
