Beschreibung
Newly discovered collection of unpublished stories by Naguib Mahfouz, a key figure in world literature. The full story of the discovery can be read here: https://www. theguardian. com/books/2018/nov/09/lost-naguib-mahfouz-stories-discovered-in-nobel-laureates-papershttps://lithub. com/on-discovering-the-lost-manuscripts-of-naguib-mahfouz/. Includes a foreword by internationally bestselling author Elif Shafak. A much-loved Egyptian author of 34 novels, and hundreds of short stories, Mahfouz was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988 (the only Arab writer to date). His work has been compared to that of European masters such as Balzac, Emile Zola, Tolstoy, and Dickens. Simon Sebag Montefiore (author of Jerusalem. ) called him the 'Arab Tolstoy'. Lively fable-like stories with Mahfouz's signature observations of the human character, taking the reader deep into the beating heart of Cairo. This small treasure-trove is an invaluable addition to his oeuvre. Translation by Roger Allen, a master translator of many key Arabic works of fiction including several by Naguib Mahfouz. A must read for fans of The Yacoubian Building. , Alaa Al Aswany, Gabriel Garcia Marquez
