Nadira (with Commentary)

In trying to choose between following her heart--to pursue a new intimate relationship, and following her commitment--to a serious man in her hometown, Nadira is forced to confront her true feelings--including her own personal insecurities. In watching her decide, we discover her to be a truly precious individual. ...but does she know her own worth? The author also comments on the symbolism and meaning of the story. Because he views the story as something he found within--rather than built--he comments from a readers--uncertain--perspective, rather than the authors authoritative perspective.
