Respected Sir, Wedding Song, The Search

Respected Sir, Wedding Song, The Search

A new volume of three novelsâ€“previously published separately by Anchorâ€“by Naguib Mahfouz, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. Together with The Beggar, The Thief and The Dogs, and Autumn Quail (published by Anchor in December 2000), these novels represent a comprehensive collection of Mahfouzâ€™s artful meditations on post-revolution Egypt. Diverse in style and narrative technique, they render a nuanced and universally resonant vision of modern life in the Middle East.

Respected Sir, â€œa latter-day Bleak House in Arabicâ€ (The New York Times), revisits a familiar themeâ€“vaulting ambitionâ€“in a powerful and religious metaphor. Wedding Song, â€œone of Mahfouzâ€™s most enjoyable worksâ€ (The Chicago Tribune), is a psychological drama, focusing on how four very different kinds of minds apprehend and reckon with the realities that surround them. The Search is a powerful, lurid, and compelling story of lust, greed, and murder.
