Part of the Saqi Bookshelf series

Paperback / softback

Description

A twelve-year old boy returns to his village from school in Cairo to find the community torn by feud and fear.

Working together, the young, old, men and women in the village discover that despite high rents, low wages, a greedy ruling-class, and attractive distractions, if you are faithful to the land, it will care for you.

Egyptian Earth is an epic drama of great power. This compassionate and humorous tale of defiance is a masterpiece of modern Arabic literature.
