From the back:
In awarding the 1988 Nobel Prize for Literature to Naguib Mahafouz, the Swedish Academy of Letters noted that "through works rich in nuance - now clear-sightedly realistic, now evocatively ambiguous - [Mahafouz] has formed an Arabic narrative art that applies to all mankind." Born in Cairo in 1911, Mahfouz is the author of more than thirty novels. The Beginning and the End was first published in Arabic in 1949.
