Khudair Merry's biography of madness is a sharp, insightful exploration, akin to drawing with a knife on the soul. His madness, reminiscent of Hamlet and gnostic shadow-seekers, guides him like a star through darkness. Shaken in his faith in conventional reason, he "took from madness the freedom it lacked." Understanding Merry requires grasping his relationship with "Sham'iya," a Foucaultian "disaster-place" that he paradoxically transforms into Al-Farabi's virtuous city, a haven for philosophers. Through Hamletian madness, Merry rescues the mind from brutality, turning a hostile landscape into a philosophical archipelago for survival and reflection.
