Where Winter Never Ends is an anthology of short stories by Qatari author Fatima Abdulaziz Bilal. In her new book published by Arab Scientific Publishers, Fatima delves into crucial social issues such as corruption through fictional stories using sarcasm. She focuses on varied techniques in narration to attract foreign readers in this new book translated into English.
The author is well known for her clever use of irony to express her views in her writings especially when she criticizes officials for their irregularities in her stories employing varied styles.
“With Fatima, coffee and writing seem to be twins; since coffee recalls writing and when writing a cup of coffee is always present. Both of them inspire her to unveil the traits of corruption and its similar faces,” writes famous Saudi novelist, Yousef Al Mohaimeed.
This is Fatima’s second book published in collaboration with Beirut-based Arab Scientific Publishers following her book entitled When the Coffee Sipped in the Sky.
The 135-page book was designed by Lebanese artist, Sameh Khalaf with pictures by Adam Gryko. 
Where Winter Never Ends will be available in bookshops in Qatar and Great Britain very soon. Soft copies of the book will also be made available in the near future.
