The book "Elephant Elephant" is one of the popular novels of "Bakhtiar Ali", a Kurdish author living in Germany, who examines the life of a group of Iraqi Kurdish people and narrates their hardships in a mostly captivating story. Bakhtiar Ali is an important writer who presents a part of the social structure of Iraqi Kurds to the audience and explores a new angle of this whole with each of his works. Bakhtiar Ali's prose is usually poetic and subtle, and the use of various literary devices in this prose is considered one of the main features of the author's work. However, the blackness and bitterness of the concept of the stories, when narrated in such prose, although it becomes acceptable to the audience, drips the bitter taste of truth on the audience's palate like hot coffee. Bakhtiar Ali's main style is fluidity of the mind. This style doubles the ability to penetrate the hero's mind and allows the audience to fully understand the truths of his life in the minutes they are alone with him. This is why Bakhtiar Ali is called the most important Kurdish writer, and his novels make a strong impression on the audience's taste in the very first pages alone. Bandar Fili is a novel of approximately 500 pages that is narrated in the author's usual style, which is fluidity of mind. In this story, the life of "Bandar", a Kurdish boy from the Fili tribe, is narrated, which symbolically refers to the displacement and exile of the Kurds in Iraq. Bandar is the child of prison, and this is the biggest concept mentioned in this book. Bandar's mother was executed in prison, and now he is forced to seek answers to his questions in a prison where he does not know what the punishment is. Important questions that mark his identity and the identity of a large group of Iraqi people. In this novel, along with Bandar Fili and Bakhtiar Ali's precise and terrifying descriptions, we will have a terrifying journey to the most terrifying prisons of the Iraqi Baath regime and, in perspective, we will get to know the character of the irrational dictator of Iraq, Saddam Hussein. Bandar Fili is a story of a child, teenager, and young man who repeatedly escapes from intellectual and mental prisons to find the truth, but in the end, an unknown future awaits him. Reading this work is recommended for those interested in Kurdish literature and the fluid style of the mind.
