This is a story of a marital separation and divorce between Amina and Amin. Though there was a small period of grace, back when “the peace stretched between them more than the arguments”, it seemed that from the outset, their relationship was marred by constant conflict. Disagreement infects their everyday lives, from the kind of furniture they prefer to the possible names and number of their future children. They seem to take great delight in cutting each other down, deriding each other’s choices in wardrobe, personal habits and life philosophies.
