About This Item
New York, New York, USA: Anchor Books/Random House, 2001. Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7. One volume with tree novels previously published separately, by Nobel Laureate author Naguib Mahfouz. Trade Paperback in Very Good Condition. Clean and unmarked with trace wear to corners, soundly bound, pages all intact, clean and free from any markings. Each novel portrays post-revolutionary Egypt. Themes include excessive ambition in a powerful religious metaphor--the desire to 'move up' supersedes all else in the protagonist's life; psychological drama about life in the theatre, focusing on how four very different kinds of minds can apprehend and deal with the realities around them; and a chilling story of a young criminal seeking his father--Mahfouz explores the social alienation that drives him to conspiracy and murder. This one is a harsh critique of contemporary mores. 454 pages. 8 x 5.25 inches. Anchor Books/Random House Publishing, New York, 2001.
