Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Libyan text. Does this mean that the place was a repellent?

The sentence is:

شعرت بأن المكان طارد حتى وإن كان معزولا ولا أحد يجاورني ولا أسمع به صوتا عدا صوت الجامع القريب ....

هذا يتماشى مع السياق، فعندما يكون المكان معزولا، فنحن نحس بأنه صغير لاننا نقارنه بما حوله من
المساحة الاوسع. والكاتب هنا يحس بأنه واسع حتى وان كان معزولا.
