Muna al-¦ammari (b. 1966) is a Kuwaiti short story writer, novelist, screenwriter and journalist. Her first collection of stories, entitled Yasqut al-matar… tamut al-amirah (The rain falls… the princess dies) and published in 2012, describes the anxieties and worries of the inhabitants of Fahaheel (Fahihil), a small town located in southern Kuwait, where the writer was born and lived her childhood and adolescence and where she forged her identity. In the thirteen short stories that make up the collection, space – which is a ‘space of memory’ – represents not merely a geographical framework but rather the real object of narration. Through the constant dialogue between ‘space of memory’ and ‘memory of space’ the author re-composes her own identity
