They are among us.
They are the Djinn.
There is no part of the world that does not know them.
Every religion, every history has them hiding in their dark places.
Every culture knows their traditions.
Every language has a word for them.
On street corners, behind the wheel of a taxi, in the chorus, between the pages of books.
And they are everywhere.
Some have called them genies: these are the Djinn.
They are monsters, saviours, victims, childhood friends.
Eavesdropping and exploring; savaging our bodies, saving our souls.
Imagine a world filled with fierce, fiery beings, hiding in our shadows, in our dreams, under our skins.
