Abstract

Focalization is the reduction of the narrator’s field and confining his information, that is, choosing a type of channel that conveys the news from the narrator to his reader in the novel. “Destinies” is a novel that describes the lives of Palestinians after the Nakba. If the Holocaust (The massacre of the Jews There is no doubt that this incident is fake), contained in the sub-title of the novel, is a media-trafficking event, the real Holocaust in "destinies" is what the Palestinian has been living under occupation for more than 70 years. Rabai Al-Madhoun tried to describe the conditions of the displaced Palestinians and who remained in occupied Palestine in the form of four movements centered on one pair in each move and clarify their position on this issue. This is what turns the focus in this novel into a point of compass and hangs over the other elements and revolves (Like character, plot ...) around these elements and all this was done according to the descriptive-analytical method. The author begins the novel with external blasphemy to encourage the reader to read by creating questions and ambiguities within it. Then, using the zero focus and giving more information, the reader becomes familiar with the characters of the novel and while approaching the most emotional moments in the novel .
