Abu Bakr Al-Rabiya
Abu Bakr Al-Rabiya kanadalik yozuvchi boʻlib, uning Winnie Yeung bilan hamkorlikda yozilgan xotira kitobi Homes: A Refugee Story 2018-yilda nashr etilgan[1].
Asli vatani Iroq boʻlgan Al-Rabiya oilasi bilan 2010-yilda ozchilikdagi sunniy musulmonlar maqomi tufayli taʼqibdan qochish uchun Suriyaning Hims shahriga koʻchib oʻtgan, biroq tez orada Suriya fuqarolar urushi boshlanib ketgani uchun yana koʻchishga majbur boʻlgan[2]. U va uning oilasi 2014-yildan beri Alberta shtatining Edmonton shahrida yashaydi[3], Yeung esa u kitob yozish haqida oʻylay boshlagan paytda uning ingliz tili ikkinchi til sifatida oʻqituvchisi boʻlgan[3].
Kitob dastlab 2016-yilda muallif hisobidan nashr etilgan, 2018-yilda esa Freehand Books tomonidan tijoriy qayta nashrga olinadi[4].
Asar 2018-yilgi Bosh gubernator mukofotlarida ingliz tilidagi badiiy boʻlmagan asarlar uchun Bosh gubernator mukofotining qisqa roʻyxatiga kiritilgan[5], shuningdek, 2019-yilgi Shaughnessy Cohen siyosiy adabiyot mukofoti uchun ham nomzod boʻlgan[6]. Kitob Canada Reads dasturining 2019-yilgi soni uchun tanlab olingan boʻlib, unda asarni Chuck Comeau himoya qilgan[7].
