The University of Arkansas Press Award for Arabic Literature in Translation, 1997In this, the first Nubian novel ever translated, Awad Shalali, a Nubian worker in modern Egypt, dreams of Dongolathe capital of medieval Nubia, now lost to the flood waters of the Aswan High Dam. In Dongola, the Nubians reached their zenith. They defeated and dominated Upper Egypt, and their archers, deadly accurate in battle, were renowned as the bowman of the glance.Helima, Awads wife, must deal with the reality of todays Nubia, a povertystricken bottomland. Men like Awad now work in Cairo for good wages while the women remain at home in squalor, dominated by the Islam of their conquerors and ignorant of the glory now covered by the Niles water. Left to tend Awads sick mother and his dying country, Halima grows despondent and learns the truths behind the Upper Egyptian lyric: Time, you are a traitorwhat have you done with my love?Through his characters pain and suffering, Idris Ali paints in vibrant detail, with wit and a keen sense of historys absurdities, the story of cultures and hearts divided, of lost lands, impossible dreams, and abandoned lives.
