| Book Description | The critical realism of Naguib Mahfouz is evident in this novel, and it is also the beginning of the absurd philosophy that he presented in many of his subsequent works; on the one hand, it is a reflection of the societal reality that does not stop at the point of observation, but rather goes beyond it to the critical view of this reality, and on the other hand, it raises many questions about the absurdity of the life that the hero of the novel, Saeed Mahran, lives, and his attempts to create value for this life, but he fails every time, which makes him ultimately surrender to his fate, declaring despair, and the futility of survival or resistance in this world that has become a pasture for dogs such as his owner, Alish, his wife, Nabawiya, and the journalist, Raouf. The novel is also not without multiple projections about the political and social reality that Egypt lived after the July 1952 revolution, the hopes that were pinned on it, and the state it has reached. |
