One Thousand and One Nights

Number of pages: 301 One Thousand and One Nights with a contemporary touch... and Shahryar's kingdom, cities of meanings teeming in the imagination of Naguib Mahfouz... and Scheherazade as a symbol withdrawing... slipping from the past as a name to be Scheherazades and Shahryar to be Shahryars and Shahryazades, and for the story to be the story of every time and every place... happening through oppression... tyranny and suffering... and Naguib Mahfouz stands behind his lines... and between the depths of his meanings, he moves them as if he is the one standing behind a puppet theater curtain... moving his puppets... changing their dresses... decorating them... coloring them with a thousand colors and shades... so that the reader-viewer becomes captive to his world and his memory moves back... to come closer to what the present reveals.
