Synopsis
الملف الأصفر (The Yellow File) is Tunisian novelist Amira Ghanim's debut novel, published in 2019 and winner of the Sheikh Rashid bin Hamad Award in 2020. Its fictional narrative centers on the real-life Tunisian social reformer Al-Taher Al-Hadad, with events unfolding on the margins of the Tunisian Revolution and moving between Tunis, Sousse and Hammamet. Through this story, Ghanim examines psychological illness and its imprint on Tunisia's political and social life in the years after 2011.
