Rawi Hage's 'Cockroach' is a darkly compelling novel exploring the psychological landscape of an unnamed immigrant in Montreal. Plagued by poverty, trauma، and a pervasive sense of otherness, the protagonist navigates the city's harsh realities while grappling with his identity, memory, and the spectre of past violence. The narrative delves deep into themes of urban alienation, mental illness, and the complex struggle for survival, offering a raw and unflinching look at the human condition. Hage's prose is starkly beautiful, creating a powerful and unforgettable portrait of desperation and resilience in the face of an unforgiving world.
