Sugar Street - (Cairo Trilogy) by Naguib Mahfouz (Paperback)

Sugar Street is a masterful novel by Nobel Prize-winning author Naguib Mahfouz, bringing his epic Cairo Trilogy to a dramatic climax.

Spanning three generations of a tyrannical patriarch's family, the novel explores themes of colonialism, religion, and identity in 1950s Egypt.

With compelling drama, earthy humor, and remarkable insight, Mahfouz weaves a vivid tapestry of a changing Egypt, as one grandson becomes a Communist, another a Muslim fundamentalist, and the third the lover of a powerful politician.

This is a must-read for anyone interested in Middle Eastern literature, family dynamics, or the complexities of colonialism.
