About this book

Beginning with Boxer’s unquestioning labour in Animal Farm, Odai Al Zoubi asks where wisdom ends and naïveté begins. Pure credulity clears the path for evil, but intelligence without innocence can become another form of corruption. These stories test the unstable relation between knowledge, vigilance and the hopeful belief that resistance remains possible. The Book of Wisdom and Naivety is a philosophical collection grounded in everyday choices, political experience and the moral ambiguities of contemporary life.
