Homecoming: Sixty Years of Egyptian Short Stories (Modern Arabic Literature),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Short story writing in Egypt was still in its infancy when Denys JohnsonDavies, described by Edward Said as 'the leading ArabicEnglish translator of our time,' arrived in Cairo as a young man in the 1940s. Nevertheless, he was immediately impressed by such writing talents of the time as Mahmoud Teymour, Yahya Hakki, Yusuf Gohar, and the future Nobel literature laureate Naguib Mahfouz, and he set about translating their works for local Englishlanguage periodicals of the time.He continued to translate over the decades, and sixty years later he brings together this remarkable overview of the work of several generations of Egypt's leading short story writers. This selection of some fifty stories represents not only a crosssection through time but also a spectrum of styles, and includes works by Teymour, Hakki, Gohar, and Mahfouz and later writers such as Mohamed ElBisatie, Said elKafrawi, Bahaa Taher, and Radwa Ashour, as well as new young writers of today like Hamdy ElGazzar, Mansoura Ez Eldin, and Youssef Rakha.
