Hisham matar's Man Booker-shortlisted debut, "In the Country of Men" (2006), was a delicate portrayal of a nine-year-old boy growing up in 1970s Libya, in the shadow of "the Guide". Like the author, who grew up in Tripoli and Cairo, and now lives in London, the boy loses his dissident father to an unknown fate in Colonel Qaddafi's dungeons. The brutal and ambiguous loss of a father is also at the heart of Mr Matar's second novel.
