This review is from: Naguib Mahfouz: The Pursuit of Meaning (Arabic Thought and Culture) (Paperback)
If you're a big fan of Naguib Mahfouz like myself, and if you really want to understand the idea behind the plots and symbols in Naguib Mahfouz's novels, then you will definitely like this book.
The book is like a reference for all of the works Naguib Mahfouz have done till sometime in the 1990's. Best thing about this book is that it categorizes the novels according to the meaning the author is conveying. It first starts with introduction about the life of Naguib Mahfouz, then goes into different categories. I found the reviews of the "Harafeesh", "the thief and the dogs", "Journeys of Ibn Fattuma", "Children of Gebelawi", "respected sir", and all the rest marvelous! In description of books like "the Beggar", it gives great explanation of what every character in the novel represent. I highly recommend this book to anybody who is reading the works of Naguib Mahfouz! |
