PublisherDiwan Publishing
In this collection of twenty-two vibrant stories, Naguib Mahfouz takes us back to the neighborhood world he constructed and creatively described, transforming it into a highly private narrative world where the bullies symbolize force and brutal authority, the neighborhood sheikh symbolizes the loyal executive administration, and the neighborhood's sons are dominated by them. Through this world, Mahfouz depicts the transformations that society is witnessing and the immediate obstacles it faces. This is evident in the story "Echoes of Oblivion," where the bully "Anbar" returns to God when he and his gang become men of the mosque. However, they soon return to practicing their bullying in a new guise, raising the banner of religion and chanting "God is Great."
