A worker dangles from the moon crescent to be placed on top of the Makkah Royal Clock Tower. The building has the largest clock face in the world, and inside the crescent is a prayer room overlooking the Ka’aba. A lone figure, hoisted skywards. This is the crescent moon that will crown the clock tower. In Ahmed’s story, Jabril “sits between reality and the impossible cityscapes of the future.” The worker’s mundane task becomes spectacle, as he glides through the air “like an angel bringing a warning.”
