| Zayni Barakat | |
| Softcover ~ English ~ Product Code: 11860 By: Gamal al-Ghitani Topic: Literature-Novel-Prose Abstract: "In the course of my long travels I have never seen a city so devastated. After a long time I ventured out into the streets. Death, cold and heavy, hung in the air. Walls have no value here, doors have been eliminated. No one is certain that they will see another day." The Egypt of the Mamluk dynasty witnessed a period of artistic ostentation and social and political upheaval, at the heart of which lay the unsolved question of the ruler's legitimacy. Now, in 1516, the Mamluk reign is coming to an end with the advance of the invading. Ottomans. The numerous narrators, among them a Venetian traveler and several native Muslims, tell the story of the rise to power of the ruthless, enigmatic, and puritanical governor of Cairo, Zayni Barakat ibn Musa, whose control of the corrupt city is effected only through a complicated network of spies and informers. | |

| The Open Door | |
| Softcover ~ Arabic ~ Product Code: 11696 By: Latifa al-Zayyat Topic: Literature-Novel Abstract: The Open Door is a landmark of women's writing in Arabic; published in 1960 it was very bold for its time in exploring a middle-class Egyptian girl's coming of age, in the context of the Egyptian nationalist movement preceding the 1952 revolution. The novel traces the pressures on young women and men of that time and class as they seek to free themselves of family control and social expectations. Young Layla and her brother become involved in the student activism of the 1940s and early 1950s and in the popular resistance to continued imperialist rule; the story culminates when Adb Al Nasser's nationalization of the canal led to a British, French, and Israeli invasion. Not only daring in her themes, Al Zayyat was also bold in her use of colloquial Arabic, and the novel contains some of the liveliest dialogue in modern Arabic literature. | |

| The Mirage | |
| Hardcover ~ English ~ Product Code: 11861 By: Naguib Mahfouz Topic: Literature-Novel Abstract: A psychological study of the first order with a subtly Freudian flavor, THE MIRAGE is the autobiographical account of Kamil Ru'ba, a tortured soul who finds himself struggling unduly to cope with life's challenges. The internal torment and angst that dog him throughout his life and the tragic, ironic turns of events that overtake him as a young man are, to a great extent, the outworkings of his faulty upbringing. At the same time, they work together to drive home the novel's underlying theme: the illusory, undependable nature of the world in which we live and the call to seek, beyond the outward and the ephemeral, that which is inward and enduring. The narrative, full of pathos, draws the reader unwittingly into a vicarious experience of Kamil's agonies and ecstasies. As such, it is a specimen of Mahfouz's prose at its finest. | |
