adam_text | When
Mahmoud Abd
El Zahir
is sent to govern
the remote Egyptian oasis of
Siwa
in the late 1890s.
he Knows the danger he (aces ~ two of his predecessors
were murdered. But having been accused of disloyalty to the
current regime and its British overlords, he has little choice.
Rather than stay behind in Cairo, his Irish wile Catherine insists
on going too, hoping to reinvigorate their relationship.
Once at
Siwa,
Mahmoud
linds
himself not only fiercely resented
but caught between two warring factions, while Catherine,
with her Western ways and seemingly avaricious interest in the
local archaeological sites, succeeds in alienating the entire
community ~ all except for a beautiful young woman, herself
an outcast, whose attempt at friendship spells
disastet.
In this fascinating novel, Bahaa Taher weaves together several
voices to capture a society at war with itself and a marriage in
trouble. At once a complex tale of love and an exploration
of power, occupation and rebellion, ^un^et
ОЛЅ!Ѕ
tells of people struggling to free themselves from
the grip of the past. It is a striking, haunting
work bv one of the Arab world s most
celebrated writers.
