Description
Writing is associated with pain that refers to the other in terms of its absence in the story collection titled «A Cold Evening» by Fatima Abdullah bin Rafaa “Bint al-Sarraa”, as the writing here represents the absence of the lover; the story of the woman in love in the text has ended with great disappointment, a sad conclusion, and a heart that is filled with frost, as if life has lost its meaning in a moment or in «A Cold Evening». As if life lost its meaning in a moment or in a ”cold evening”, «Bint Al-Sarraa» expresses the feelings of every (woman) who has lost the warmth of the spiritual and romantic intimate relationship that (man) shows her throughout his presence in her life, and the sense of loss, loneliness and emptiness that results from its loss.In the story titled “A Cold Evening", we read: "...my bedroom is still cold even though I turned off the air conditioning. My covers are like snow, and my heart is frost. .
