About

Ali Al-Naama stands as a prominent voice in contemporary Qatari literature, carrying forward a rich legacy of storytelling. His multicultural upbringing between Qatar and the United Kingdom has uniquely shaped his literary perspective, while his familial connection to Qatar's media heritage runs deep through his grandfather, Abdulla Hussain Al-Naama – a pioneering figure who established Qatar's first magazine, Al-Ouroba, and its inaugural newspaper, Al-Arab.

From an early age, Ali demonstrated a natural inclination toward writing, nurturing a boundless imagination that would later define his literary works. His storytelling prowess came to full fruition in 2022 with the publication of his fantasy fiction novel "Circus of the Greats" by Hamad Bin Khalifa University Press, marking a significant contribution to Qatari literature. This debut work showcased his ability to craft intricate worlds filled with interest and intrigue, establishing him as a distinctive voice in the region's literary landscape.

Building on this success, Al-Naama continued to expand his literary repertoire with the release of "The Scenarist" in 2024. His creative journey shows no signs of slowing, as he currently prepares for the upcoming sequel to "Circus of the Greats." Through his work, Ali Al-Naama bridges traditional storytelling with contemporary fantasy, enriching Qatar's literary scene with his unique narrative vision and creative worlds.
