BRUSSELS - EntSun -- Following up the debut novel of Mustapha Chaar's, The Journey of Loss and Finding Yourself, Beta readers have been captivated not only by the book's emotional depth but also by its evocative cover.

The cover of The Journey of Loss and Finding Yourself is a visual journey in itself. Dominated by contrasting elements, the design encapsulates the novel's themes. The portrait depicts two arms trying to reach each other. The arm representing Michael is restrained by his three demons — suicide, addiction, and self-hatred. These demons prevent him from reaching the woman he loves, Juliana, ultimately causing him to lose her.

The background behind Michael's arm is engulfed in fire and a red haze, symbolizing a hellish torment. While, in contrast, Juliana's hand is set against a serene blue background, surrounded by yellow stars. Representing the side he wanted to be on, a side where there is harmony and peace, the heaven he wished to attain.

WHAT MAKES THE COVER UNIQUE?

The book cover is handed painted by the Author himself, adding a more personal touch into his distinctive story. What sets this cover apart is its ability to communicate the essence of the story without giving it all away. The cover invites readers to look deeper, just as the story encourages introspection and the exploration of one's inner world. Each element on the cover serves a purpose, from the color choices to the placement of symbolic imagery, making it a true reflection of the narrative within.
