Heralded by many critics as being a work that prophesied the Lebanese civil war, Beirut '75 is instead a work that expresses the existential and political views of its author and not the complete reality of the socio-political situation at that critical moment in Lebanese history. Even though Ghada al-Samman argues that the work is not autobiographical and that she does not profess any particular political stance, the work is permeated with her political views and her own personal life experience. The city of Beirut, torn between the East and the West, can even be viewed as a metaphor for the author herself. 'Article George Nicolas El-hage, Ph.d., George Nicolas El-Hage Ph D Statement.'

The author's scalding critique of the Lebanese situation resonates with strong sociopolitical issues.
Here are telling portraits of class oppression and the role of women in Arab society, the treatments of war and sexuality, of immigration, of cultural assimilation and nationalism. Far from home and out of harm's way, Samman's Lebanese exiles repeat and replay the same conflicts that tormented them in their own land even as it is under siege. The Night of the First Billion is a reminder that the only genuine security is to be found in the courageous willingness to confront, challenge, and finally to ease suffering.
