ghal Amy
Ruben is searching
for true love. This he finds in Amy, a prostitute.
This
work is another example of how the maltese author, in varying degrees
of literacy, is reflecting that reality which is lived by his readers.
This
novel is constructed not only using the third person, but also on
dialogue which brings it close to drama.
Casha
is giving a very worthwhile contribution towards bridging two extremes:
the literary novel in the strict sense of the word and popular narration.
