Robab Mohab has written the novel "In the arms of the father, there is the home of oblivion" in 2009. In this interwoven narrative, Moheb points out that the literature of migration does not merely express a certain state of the individual migrant's feelings, but rather a plan that pushes into a labyrinth of thoughts and emotions of immigrants. This labyrinth is of colored shapes and spaces, which these people have been willingly or unwillingly chosen for life. The immigrant is a human being lost in a net of strange of unfamiliar sounds. In this novel, own experiences and narratives have been a rich source for the author.
