Stages

Mikhail Naimy

If every nation has the right to boast of its writers and poets, and to take pride in its geniuses, philosophers, and thinkers, then we, the children of the Arab nation, have the right to place Mikhail Naimy at the forefront of our spiritual and literary prides in this era. Mikhail Naimy is a unique humanitarian school and a luminous doctrine among the noblest doctrines of Arab and global human thought. The author describes this book, "Stages," as "journeys into the apparent and hidden aspects of life"; and it is enough for you to read the first article in it, titled "Three Faces," to know to what vast horizons a soaring imagination, a pure mind, and a bright, unpretentious, and unforced expression can elevate you. It is truth itself, because the conscience pulsating within it is the conscience of a sincere human and a creative artist.
