Midaq Alley ( Zokaq El Midaq )
by Naguib Mahfouz
Considered by many to be Mahfouz's best novel, Midaq Alley
centers around the residents of one of the hustling, teeming back
alleys of Cairo. No other novel so vividly evokes the sights
and sounds of the city. The universality and timelessness of this
book cannot be denied.
From Library Journal
Written in the 1940s, this novel by the Egyptian Nobel laureate Mahfouz
deals with the plight of impoverished classes in an old quarter of Cairo.
The lives and situations depicted create an atmosphere of sadness and tragic
realism.
