A politically charged novel from ’s Nobel laureate Karnak Café A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Roger Allen

t a café, a cross-section of Egyptian society, young and old, rich and poor, are Adrawn together by the quality of its coffee and the allure of its owner, legendary former dancer Qurunfula. When three of the young patrons disappear for prolonged periods, the older customers display varying reactions to the news. On their return, they recount horrific stories of arrest and torture at the hands of the secret police, and the habitués of the café begin to with- draw from each other in fear, suspecting that there is an informer among them. With the night- time arrests and the devastation of the country’s defeat in the 1967 War, the café is transformed from a haven of cameraderie and bright-eyed idealism to an atmosphere charged with mounting suspicion, betrayal, and crushing disillusionment. Exposing the dark underbelly of ideology, and delving into the idea of the ‘necessary evils’ of social upheaval, Karnak Café remains one of the Nobel laureate’s most pointedly critical works, as relevant and incisive today as it was when it was first published in 1971.

A new collection of dreams from Egypt’s Nobel laureate Dreams of Departure The Last Dreams Published in the Nobel Laureate’s Lifetime Naguib Mahfouz Translated by Raymond Stock

n this second collection of writing based on his own dreams serialized in a Cairo magazine Ibefore his death in 2006, Egyptian Nobel lau- reate Naguib Mahfouz again displays his match- less ability to tell epic stories in uncannily terse form. As in the first volume (The Dreams, AUC Press, 2004), we meet more of the real (and unreal) figures that filled the author’s life with glory and worry, ecstasy and ennui, in tales dreamed by a mind too fertile to ever truly rest. In them, a man sent by a victorious invader to open a storehouse holding the statue of Egypt’s reawakening finds his access denied by a menacing reptile. An obscure writer dies, and a despairing inscription on his coffin turns his funeral into a massive demonstration. A man opens a stubborn gate to stare at a lake over which loom the illumi- nated faces of those he has loved, but who are no more—in search of the soul who made him long to live forever. The ever more condensed and poetic episodes in Dreams of Departure movingly carry on Mahfouz’s only major work after a knife attack in 1994 ironically inspired him to dream in print for his readers.

An extraordinary new novel from the author of Zayni Barakat Pyramid Texts Gamal al-Ghitani A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Humphrey Davies

ith its Sufistic parables of the human condition, rendered in a style redolent Wof both the austere meditations of Borges and the dark engorged ruminations of Arthur C. Clark, Pyramid Texts engages the mind and beguiles the imagination. In a series of chap- ters each shorter than the last—so that, like their subjects, they taper ultimately into nothingness— the author evokes the obsessions that have drawn men over the centuries to the brooding presence of mankind’s most ancient and mysterious monu- ments. Among others in a procession of exotic characters, a Moroccan seeker after knowledge spends years contemplating the pyramids in the hope that one day he will understand the mysteri- ous writing that fitfully appears on their sides. Another waits patiently for the moment when the shadow of one will diverge from its accustomed path and bestow immortality, and the Sphinx per- forms a celestial dance. Pyramid Texts leads us into into a world of endless passages and mysterious sighing winds, a world whose claustrophobic and shadowy spaces may be illuminated by flashes of ecstasy leading to scintillating transfigurations and dizzying annihilations.

GAMAL AL-GHITANI was born in 1945. He has written thirteen novels, including Zayni Barakat (AUC Press, 2004), and six collections of short March stories.

A multifaceted fictional recreation of the Iraqi city of Basra Basrayatha Portrait of a City Mohammed Khudayyir A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by William Hutchins asrayatha is a literary tribute by author Mohammed Khudayyir to the city of his Bbirth, Basra, on the Shatt al-Arab water- way in southern . Just as a city’s inhabitants differ from outsiders through their knowledge of its streets as well as its stories, so Khudayyir distin- guishes between the real city of Basra and Basrayatha, the imagined city he has created through stories, experiences, and folklore. By turns a memoir, a travelogue, a love letter, and a meditation, Basrayatha summons up images of a city long gone. In loving detail, Khudayyir recounts his discovery of his city as a child, as well as past communal banquets, the public baths, the delights of the Muslim day of rest, the city’s flea markets and those who frequent them, a country bumpkin’s big day in the city, Hollywood films at the local cinema, daily life during the Iran–Iraq War, and the canals and rivers around Basra. Above all, however, the book illuminates the role of the storyteller in creating the cities we inhabit. Evoking the literary modernism of authors like Calvino and Borges, and tinged with nostalgia for a city now disappeared, Basrayatha is a masterful tribute to the power of memory and imagination.

MOHAMMED KHUDAYYIR was born in Basra, Iraq, where he still lives. He is the author of several col- lections of short stories.

A luminous novel of hope and redemption from Saudi Arabia Wolves of the Crescent Moon Yousef Al-Mohaimeed A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Anthony Calderbank

n a Riyadh bus station, Turad, a bitter older man, resolves to leave the city he has come to Iloathe. Born into a Bedouin family, Turad left his desert home as a young man to work in the city—as a tea-boy, car-washer, security guard, and office messenger—after a traumatic event that led to him losing his left ear. By chance, he happens upon a green folder left behind by another trav- eler, containing official reports about an aban- doned baby born outside wedlock and found in a cardboard box, and documents about his subse- quent years in an orphanage and a foster home. As Turad imagines the life of this abandoned child, his memories stray into the secrets of his own past, and that of his friend Amm Tawfiq, an old Sudanese man brought to Saudi Arabia as a child, castrated, and sold into servitude. In this elegantly constructed narrative, Yousef Al-Mohaimeed reveals the surprising connections in the life stories of three damaged people—the Bedouin, the orphan, and the eunuch—to tell a haunting tale of modern Saudi society. Confound- ing stereotypical images of life in Saudi Arabia, Wolves of the Crescent Moon is a touching, troubling, and ultimately redemptive story of pain remem- bered and hope restored.

The story of a young woman lost in a chaotic world Maryam’s Maze Mansoura Ez Eldin A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Paul Starkey

aryam’s Maze is an enigmatic novel by one of the most promising authors of a Mvibrant new generation of Egyptian writ- ers. Set in the house of Yusuf el Tagi, Maryam’s Maze relates the story of a woman struggling to find her way through the confusion of the world around her. Using the literary device of the ‘dou- ble,’ Maryam’s Maze narrates a story that on one level touches on universal human emotions. At the same time the inner maze of dreams and memo- ries in which the young Maryam finds herself stirs greater resonance in issues of modern Egyptian life. Echoing themes found in her earlier short fic- tion, Mansoura Ez Eldin has woven a haunting allegorical tale that reveals its real meaning to the reader only at the end of the novel. With its preci- sion of language and distinctive personal vision, Maryam’s Maze represents a unique contribution to the corpus of contemporary Egyptian fiction.

MANSOURA EZ ELDIN was born in the Egyptian Delta and graduated with a degree in journalism from in 1998. She has published a collection of short stories, and presently runs the book review section of the literary magazine Akhbar al-adab. Maryam’s Maze is her first novel.

An outsider’s search for meaning in today’s Cairo Thieves in Retirement Hamdi Abu Golayyel A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Marilyn Booth

young Bedouin leaves his small village for Cairo, settling in a fringe neighborhood, Ain a building peopled by a tragicomic cast of characters on the margins of society. He becomes a fly-on-the-wall, the hoarder of his neighbor’s most sacred and scandalous secrets, observing the antics of would-be transvestite Sayf, drug-dealing Gamal, Shaykh Hassan the devout sinner, the sex-selling Doctoress, and the irre- pressible vocal stylings of the matriarch Um Gamal. Yet our narrator cannot remain blameless for long, and his transgressions, too, are eventually revealed, leaving him at the mercy of the build- ing’s owner, the just and unmerciful Abu Gamal. Hamdi Abu Golayyel combines a vivid rendering of absurd, all-too-human characters with a sharp ear for appropriating all levels of language—from literary, historical, and formal Arabic to the lowest vernacular of the Cairo streets—to critique estab- lished ideologies and the way they shape human relations and underground pursuits in modern Egyptian society. It is a story of the arbitrariness of life, and for purpose and dignity in a social milieu that offers little hope for either.

The award-winning novel, now in paperback Leaves of Narcissus Somaya Ramadan A Modern Arabic Novel Translated by Marilyn Booth

his novel of home and homelessness, of exile both physical and psychological, cen- Tters on Kimi, a fragile heroine suffering from a rift in her persona, unable to distinguish between her own pain and the pain of others. For Kimi it is not a simple case of to be or not to be, but rather of how to be in disjointed and contrary times. Leaves of Narcissus, like earlier Arabic novels about East-West encounters by male writers such as Tawfiq al-Hakim, , and Tayeb Salih, is about a young Arab student going west in search of education. Here, though, the protago- nist is a young woman and her destination is Ireland, a part of the West and at the same time a victim of the ravages of colonialism—adding ambiguity to the customary representations of the East-West dichotomy. In this captivating novel, Somaya Ramadan displays a rare virtuosity in evoking and interlacing literary motifs—from the popular to the learned, from the folk to the mythic, from the Egyptian to the Irish—and poses questions rather than answers, questions that hold a mirror to our selves.

his fascinating book describes the excava- tion and preservation of three early TRoman villas in Egypt’s ancient port city of Alexandria. Chronicling the work of the Polish Archaeological Mission in Alexandria, Villa of the Birds is an engaging and informative account of how these ancient dwellings were unearthed, and how the famous mosaic floors were brought to light two thousand years after they were laid. With the expert guidance of the archaeologists responsible for the excavation, the reader is led through layers of clues reaching ten meters below today’s street level, and to an in-depth apprecia- tion of this extraordinary site’s rich history. Drawing directly on their work with the Polish Archeological Mission, the authors describe in detail the excavation of the housing areas, as well as the baths, the gymnasia, and the theater that comprise the villa complex. Villa of the Birds reconstructs not only the villas themselves, with their magnificent mosaics, but also the history of how they were built and used, and ultimately how they were destroyed by fire. The book is richly illustrated with detailed floor plans as well as spectacular color photographs of the mosaics themselves.

uring two and a half centuries of rule by Mamluk sultans, Cairo acquired some of Dits most impressive medieval architec- ture, including the historical monuments that today define the city’s architectural heritage. In this comprehensive work of analysis and descrip- tion, Islamic art historian Doris Behrens-Abouseif highlights the most important factors in the evo- lution of Mamluk urban architecture, along with the social and political reasons for their patronage as builders of mosques, schools, hospitals, and mausolea.

he great medieval necropolis of Cairo, comprising two main areas together Tstretching twelve kilometers north to south, constitutes a major feature of the city’s urban landscape. With monumental and smaller- scale mausolea dating from all eras since early medieval times, and boasting some of the finest examples of Mamluk architecture not just in the city but in the region, the necropolis is an unparalleled—and until now largely undocu- mented—architectural treasure trove. In Architecture for the Dead, architect Galila El Kadi and photographer Alain Bonnamy have produced a comprehensive and visually stunning survey of all areas of the necropolis. Through detailed and painstaking research and remarkable photography, in text, maps, plans, and pictures, they describe and illustrate the astonishing variety of architectural styles, from Mamluk to neo- Mamluk via baroque and neo-pharaonic, from the grandest stone buildings with their decorative domes and minarets to the humblest—but elabo- rately decorated—wooden structures. The book also documents the modern settlement of the necropolis by families creating a space for the living in and among the tombs and architecture for the dead.

A perennially popular text, now revised and updated Arab Cinema History and Cultural Identity Revised Edition Viola Shafik

ince it was first published in 1998, Viola Shafik’s Arab Cinema: History and Cultural SIdentity has become an indispensable work for scholars of film and the contemporary Middle East. Combining detailed narrative history—eco- nomic, ideological, and aesthetic—with thought- provoking analysis, Arab Cinema provides a com- prehensive overview of cinema in the Arab world, tracing the industry’s development from colonial times to the present. It analyzes the ambiguous relationship with commercial western cinema, and the effect of Egyptian market dominance in the region. Tracing the influence on the medium of local and regional art forms and modes of thought, both classical and popular, Shafik shows how indigenous and external factors combine in a dynamic process of “cultural repackaging.” Now updated to reflect cultural shifts in the last ten years of cinema, this revised edition contains a new afterword highlighting the latest develop- ments in popular film and in cinéma d’auteur, with a special focus on Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine. While exploring problematic issues such as Euro- pean co-production for Arab art films, including their relation to cultural identity and their recep- tion in the region and abroad, this new edition introduces readers to some of the most compel- ling cinematic works of the last decade.

Egypt’s popular cinema viewed through a film scholar’s lens Popular Egyptian Cinema Gender, Class, and Nation Viola Shafik

n this groundbreaking work, film scholar Viola Shafik examines popular and commer- Icial movies from Egypt’s film industry, includ- ing a number of the biggest box-office hits widely distributed in Egypt and the Arab world. Turning a critical eye on a major player in Egyptian cul- tural life, Shafik examines these films against the backdrop of the country’s overall socio-political development, from the emergence of the film industry in the 1930s, through the Nasser and Sadat eras, up to the era of globalization. In unearthing the largely contradictory mean- ings conveyed by different films, Popular Egyptian Cinema examines a broad array of themes, from gender relations to feminism, Islamism and popu- lar ideas about sexuality and morality. Focusing on representations of religious and ethnic minori- ties—primarily Copts, Jews, and Nubians—Shafik draws out issues such as the formation of the Egyptian nation, cinematic stereotyping, and political and social taboos. Shafik also considers pivotal genres, such as melodrama, realism, and action film, in relation to public debates over highbrow and lowbrow culture and in light of local and international film criticism.

An artist’s journey through the twentieth century in Egypt Margo Veillon Witness of a Century Edited by Bruno Ronfard

argo Veillon, one of Egypt’s best known and best loved artists, was born in Cairo Min 1907 to a Swiss father and an Austrian mother and died in the same city in 2003. For most of her 96 years she painted and drew Egypt, from north to south, from countryside to city, as well as Paris, London, and other parts of the world. As a witness to a century of enormous change in Egypt as much as elsewhere, she pro- duced a huge, rich, and varied body of work that includes work from across the decades of her career as well as across a variety of media. Although Margo lived part of her life in Europe, it was clearly Egypt that held her imagination through all those long years of artistic innovation. One strand of her work is characterized by an ability to capture and depict the energy of a spe- cific moment in time, be it a toss of wheat in the Also available: air to separate the chaff, the stoic bride in a wed- Margo Veillon: The Bursting ding procession, or a horse dancing in a tent at a Movement mulid.

18 ARCHITECTURE AND THE ARTS

A fascinating visual tour of Cairo’s antique doors and doorways Enter in Peace The Doorways of Cairo Homes, 1872–1950 Ahmed Abdel-Gawad

his photographic book sheds new light upon the architectural and decorative ele- Tments of domestic doorways from nine- teenth- and early twentieth-century Cairo. Previ- ous studies on the subject have been few and far between, and have paid more attention to the Cairo of Khedive Ismail—the new quarter of the city. Enter in Peace focuses instead on those door- ways of houses built in Cairo’s older neighbor- hoods, and inhabited by Egypt’s middle classes. Included here are over 150 photographs, illustrat- ing eighty-one of these doorways as well as the façades of the buildings in which they appear. The book records their dimensions and their various architectural and stylistic elements, from the structure of doors, lintels, and paneling to com- mon designs and motifs. Built during a period of great change and modernization in Egypt, these doorways reflect the Ottoman, European, neo- Pharaonic, and Islamic Revival architectural styles prevalent at the time. Ahmed Abdel-Gawad has made a careful study of these historic doorways, with descriptive com- ments on the houses’ original owners and dates of construction, drawing on tax records and histori- cal documentation to present them in context. Handsomely illustrated and thoroughly researched, Enter in Peace provides an important visual record of Cairo’s rapidly disappearing archi- tectural heritage.

19 HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY

The theory and practice of medicine in medieval Islam Medieval Islamic Medicine Peter E. Pormann and Emilie Savage-Smith

his illuminating new analysis by two pre- eminent scholars of medical history takes Ta fresh approach to the study of medicine in the lands of Islam during the medieval period (c. 650–1500). Drawing on numerous sources, Peter E. Pormann and Emilie Savage-Smith high- light topics such as surgery, hospital institutions, the social standing of healers, doctor–patient rela- tions, medical teaching, and the cultural inter- change and mutual influence between the Islamic and Christian worlds. Contrary to commonly accepted perceptions, medieval Islamic medicine was not simply a conduit for Greek ideas, but was a locus for innovation and change. Taking a thematic rather than a chronological approach, Medieval Islamic Medicine explores the development of medical practices across the social spectrum, from the urban milieu of Abbasid Baghdad to rural Bedouin society, and from the upper social strata to the lower classes. The authors compare and contrast the medical theo- ries and treatises of Ibn Sina and other authorities with evidence of actual practices, as well as folk- loric and magical medicine traditions. They also highlight a relatively neglected aspect of Islamic culture—the scientific heritage it bequeathed to modern medicine.

20 HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY

A new biography of the pioneering Egyptian archaeologist Labib Habachi The Life and Legacy of an Egyptologist Jill Kamil

abib Habachi, Egypt’s most perceptive and productive Egyptologist, was marginalized Lfor most of his career, only belatedly receiving international recognition for his major contributions to the field. In Labib Habachi: The Life and Legacy of an Egyptologist, Jill Kamil presents not only a long-overdue biography of this impor- tant scholar, but a survey of Egyptian archaeology in the twentieth century in which Habachi’s work is measured against that of his best-known con- temporaries—among them Selim Hassan, Ahmed Fakhry, Abdel Moneim Abu Bakr, and Gamal Mokhtar. The account of Habachi’s major discovery, the Sanctuary of Heqaib on Elephantine in 1946, was shelved by Egypt’s Antiquities Department for thirty years. When it was finally released for pub- lication, it became the subject of a heated contro- versy between Habachi and a western scholar that was never resolved. To construct her picture of Labib Habachi, Jill Kamil draws on a wide range of sources, including a long personal acquaintance with the subject. Tracing the arc of Habachi’s career, Kamil sets his life’s work in its full context, providing a valuable perspective on the development of Egyptian Egyptology and the sometimes fraught relation- ship between Egypt’s scholars and the western archaeological establishment.

The forces shaping family life in the modern Middle East The Changing Middle Eastern Family Competing Ideologies and Domestic Life in Egypt, Iran, and Tunisia Edited by Kathryn M. Yount and Hoda Rashad

ffering a wide array of scholarly perspec- tives, The Changing Middle Eastern Family Oexamines the global spread of develop- mental ideals about family and society, and their impact on the daily lives of families in three coun- tries—Egypt, Iran, and Tunisia—reflecting very different political histories, cultural milieus, and legal systems. Drawing on surveys and interviews, it reveals the responses of ordinary people— including their acceptance of, adaptation to, and rejection of ideas about marriage, divorce, wom- en’s education, childbirth, and family life. The Changing Middle Eastern Family fills major gaps in social research on family life in North and the Middle East, and highlights the influence of ideas—rather than simply economic or political forces—on historical family change. In essays spanning several disciplines, including anthropology, demography, history, and sociology, this volume documents a variety of ways in which individuals have filtered and responded to global ideals about family and nation to which they have been exposed.

22 POLITICS, ECONOMICS, AND SOCIAL ISSUES

A powerful—and empowering—study of marginalized children Beyond the Victim The Politics and Ethics of Empowering Cairo’s Street Children Kamal Fahmi

treet children—abandoned or runaway children living on their own—can be found Sin cities all over the world, and their num- bers are growing despite numerous international programs aimed at helping them. All too fre- quently, these children are viewed solely as victims or deviants to be rescued and rehabilitated. In Beyond the Victim, sociologist Kamal Fahmi draws on eight years of fieldwork with street children in Cairo to portray them in a much different—and empowering—light. Fahmi argues that, far from being mere victims or deviants, these children, in running away from alienating home lives and find- ing relative freedom in the street, are capable of actively defining their situations in their own terms. They are able to challenge the roles assigned to children, make judgments, and develop a network of niches and resources in a teeming metropolis such as Cairo. Fahmi suggests that social workers and others need to respect the agency the children display in changing their own lives. Rather than turning to collective advocacy on behalf of street children, social workers should empower them by encouraging their voluntary participation in non-formal educational activities.

KAMAL FAHMI has a Ph.D. in social work from McGill University, Canada. In addition to teaching at McGill and the in Cairo, he works as an international consultant in child protection and education as well as in participa- March tive action-research methodologies. 272pp. Hardbound 16 b/w illustrations ISBN-10 977 416 063 0 ISBN-13 978 977 416 063 9 LE120 / $24.50 For sale worldwide

An eye-opening tour of the media trends shaping the Arab world Popular Culture in the Arab World Arts, Politics, and the Media Andrew Hammond

ver the last fifty years the Arab world has witnessed two seemingly contradictory Otrends: governments have failed to unite the region politically but at the same time a vibrant popular culture has blossomed, strength- ening the sense of a shared Arab identity. Egyptian soap operas, Arab pop stars, al-Jazeera television, Islamic televangelists, and a raging debate over the “war on terror” and the future of the Arabs are just some of the phenomena that comprise the immensely rich and diverse world of the Arab mass media. Looking at such diverse cultural forms as com- mercial cinema, pop music, television, sport, theatre, and popular religion, journalist Andrew Hammond portrays the lively popular culture of the region, offering a refreshing antidote to ste- reotypical views about the Middle East. Popular Culture in the Arab World covers the entire spec- trum of pop culture in the Arab world today, from reality TV shows to the power of modern adver- tising. From Lebanese pop sensation Nancy Ajram to Shaaban Abdel-Rahim, an illiterate ironer in Cairo who rose to stardom singing of his support for Palestinians against Israel, this unique book highlights the unlikely heroes of Arab popular cul- ture.

Reflections on the legacy of the influential scholar Edward Said and Critical Decolonization Edited by Ferial J. Ghazoul

his book is dedicated to Edward Said (1935–2003), a major literary and cultural Tcritic, who has been instrumental in pro- moting decolonization through his analytical and critical writing. Scholarly articles tackle various aspects of Said’s writing on fiction, criticism, poli- tics, and music, and the volume includes an exten- sive bibliography of Edward Said. Edward Said and Critical Decolonization strives to cover the multifaceted career of Said, with empha- sis on his critical contribution to decolonization and resistance to hegemony. There are moving tes- timonies by friends and relatives, students and colleagues, which throw light on his personality. An article by Said himself on the idea of the uni- versity is published here for the first time. The volume also includes articles exploring in depth Said’s political, critical, and aesthetic positions— including his views on intellectuals and secular criticism, on traveling theory, and humanism. And Said’s thought is explored in relation to other major thinkers such as Freud and Foucault.

A timely look at the role of governments in Middle East economies Industrial Policy in the Middle East and North Africa Rethinking the Role of the State Edited by Ahmed Galal

ost governments in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region use trade Mpolicy to protect certain industries, pro- vide tax incentives to promote a particular type of investment, and make subsidized credit available to firms of a certain size. Such government inter- vention, known as industrial policy, is the topic of this book. The aim is to assess whether state intervention leads to net benefits to society, why policymakers intervene, and how to bring about a healthier balance between states and markets. Answers to these questions are given in six chap- ters based on research papers that were presented at a conference held in Cairo in November 2005, and include country case studies on Egypt, , Turkey, and Jordan.

Through a fresh reading of the primary sources and integrating the findings of recent scholarship on the subject, scholar Ahmet T.
