Description
Description
Palace of Desire continues Naguib Mahfouz’s celebrated Cairo Trilogy, following the Al-Jawad family as they navigate love, power, and tradition in 1920s Egypt. As patriarch al-Sayyid Ahmad struggles to maintain control over his household, his children face their own emotional upheavals — from unrequited love to political unrest. Richly layered and beautifully written, this novel offers an intimate look at family life, generational conflict, and a rapidly changing society. A modern classic from a Nobel Prize–winning author.
Translated from Arabic by William Maynard Hutchins, Lorne M. Kenny, Olive E. Kenny.
Edited by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (acknowledged on page 423)
Condition: A bit yellowed and has the initials of previous owner on first inside page but otherwise in very good condition.
