Letters to the U.S : A Night of Fever Bahar Shariat

Letters to the U. S; A Night of Fever is a prose-poetic novella that moves between sleep and wakefulness, where the inner body meets the outer world.
During a sleepless night, the narrator writes letters to imagined interlocutors; public figures, cultural symbols, and inner voices, while war, screens, faith, memory, and longing pulse through the room.
Geopolitics is not analyzed here, it is felt as weight, trance, anxiety, humor, and fragile hope.
The book explores belonging in an age of cultural saturation and distance. What does it mean to feel connected to a place you have never been? How do media, religion, and history shape the nervous system?
A feverish, intimate work about consciousness, identity, and the strange closeness between a single life and the world at large.
