Azazel (Small size)

This novel is a creative and dangerous work, creative because of the human dialogue areas written with delicate sensitivity blending emotion with enjoyment, and dangerous because it includes a study of the origin and development of sectarian conflict among Christian denominations in the East.. Yusuf Zidan is distinguished by both talents, the talent of the creator and the talent of the researcher, and often the two talents intertwine in this work. Sami Khashaba If we read this novel with genuine reading, we would realize the nobility of our goals and the nobility of its moral and spiritual purposes, which are a confirmation of the values of tolerance, acceptance of others, respect for the right to difference, and rejection of the principle of violence. And the language of the novel is poetic language, where the echoes of Sufi supplications are reflected, especially when reading a supplication of Heiba to his Lord. Dr. Jaber Asfour Yusuf Zidan is the first Muslim novelist to write about Christian theology in a deep novelistic way, and he is the first Muslim to attempt to provide solutions to major church problems.. Yusuf Zidan has entered the life of monasteries, and painted with the brush of a monk Christian events that actually happened, which had a great impact on the history of the Coptic Church.
