Nechdi el Marino es la biografía novelada del navegante kuwaití Ali bin Násser Al Nechdi y la reconstrucción literaria del naufragio de su último barco, ocurrido en aguas del golfo Arábigo el 19 de febrero de 1979. A medio camino entre la realidad y la ficción, el rechazo y la nostalgia, el presente y el pasado, la mirada de este león de mar a la edad de setenta años evoca los valores de un mundo que ya no existe, un mundo periclitado como consecuencia del descubrimiento y la explotación del petróleo, y de la invención de las ostras artificiales por parte de los japoneses. Tomando como punto de partida la obra Sons of Sindbad (1940) del marino australiano Alan Villiers, con quien el protagonista compartiría un año de singladuras por las costas del Índico y de África, esta obra escrita con una lengua sencilla y próxima es un canto melancólico a la navegación de los grandes veleros, a la sacrificada vida de marineros y pescadores, y a una sociedad que un día decidió darle la espalda al mar que había sido su principal sustento. Traducida a varios idiomas, Nechdi el Marino fue finalista del International Booker Prize de Ficción Árabe en 2018.
