A haunting literary novella about hunger, silence, and the mercy that kills in beautiful words.

In the ruins of a forgotten land, a father and daughter wait beside a fence that divides the living from the abandoned.
Beyond it stand white trucks with red symbols of mercy. They carry food, water, and medicine.

Inside the stillness, hope flickers like a candle fighting the wind. The people wait. The world watches.

Written in prose as spare as dust and as haunting as prayer, SELF DEFENCE is a minimalist meditation on hunger, hope, and the moral blindness of comfort.
It asks what happens when survival becomes a crime, and when compassion is claimed by power.

For readers of:
The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Men in the Sun by Ghassan Kanafani
Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee
The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy

This is not a story of war.
It is a story of waiting.
Of silence mistaken for peace.
Of the human cost hidden behind beautiful words.
