Paperback. Zustand: New. In Jabra's first novel, Amin Samaa walks the length of his native city on a portentous night. He is headed to the house of Inayat Yasser, an aristocratic heiress. On his way there, Amin recalls his childhood in a nearby village and the city slum his family had to flee to after his father died. Old friends, thieves and madames attempt to waylay him. And the haunting atmosphere of the city gives rise to memories of Amin's wife Sumaya, whose sudden disappearance two years before has left him at a loss. Sumaya's sudden reappearance forces Amin into a decision that will change his life forever. Jabra brought modernist techniques into modern Arabic literature: the reminiscences of D. H. Lawrence, the introspective wanderer of James Joyce, and the acerbic wit and country-house feel of early Aldous Huxley. This classic of Arabic literature is not to be missed.…
