Good seller
Three Egyptian tales
Hidden Jewel Respected Sir/Wedding Song/The Search came out just before the winter break.The new edition consists of three novels by Mahfouz that demonstrate unique writing style.I was quickly drawn into the book after flipping over ten pages or so.Mahfouz writes very succinctly and elegantly.His plots usually begin with a very usual setting.But there is also an element of suspense.You will keep on reading not because you know something is going to happen, but becuase things combine to hold you fast. Respected Sir talks about how a government clerk sacrifices all comfort and breaks all family ties to ascend in rank.His eternal goal is that he will become the Director of Administration (Level 1) in the government.The narrative authenticates how we desire for power and attain such power against all odds. Wedding Song involves a whole different writing style.The story features a montage, re-telling of the same story in the persepctives of 4 characters.Psychologucal suspense dominates the mood of the piece as, the main characters, twist back and forth between virtuality and reality.You will unveil the "true story" that was masked and concealed by what the characters perceive the story to be. The Search tells of the story of a criminal searching for his long-lost father.The sexual desire, the filler of loneliness, and fear interweaves with his longing for his father.Mahfouz has wriiten three brilliant pieces that delineates human emotions.Hidden jewel in modern/contemporary literature. ...

One of the all-time greats...
The most depressing Mahfouz novel
