Description:Cairo, 1948. Two families lay claim to a plot of land on which they share a house. The ruthless master of El-Wehda Street takes the side of Musa against El-Arabi, and an honest man dies defending his shop.

Can Safwat rise above 'an eye for an eye'? Will he choose peace -- or seek a just revenge? Ostensibly a story about an ongoing struggle between two families over three decades, the book is also a carefully constructed allegory of the wider Middle East conflict.Author Sayed Gouda is this century’s answer to Naguib Mahfouz, the Nobel laureate who immortalized the everyday life and concerns of Egypt’s working-class society.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
