The tumultuous alley of this rich and intricate novel (first published in Arabic in 1959) is inhabited by a delightful Egyptian family, but is also the setting for a second, hidden, and more daring narrative: the spiritual history of humankind. The men and women of a modern Cairo neighborood unwittingly reenact the lives of their holy ancestors: from the feudal lord who disowns one son for diabolical pride and puts another to the test, to the savior of a succeeding generation who frees his people from bondage. This powerful novel confirms again the richness and variety of Mahfouz's storytelling and his status as "the single most important writer in modern Arabic literature" (Newsweek).Binding Type: Paperback

Very soft and comfy
Size: Queen Comforter, Color: Grey Comforter, Size: Queen Comforter, Color: Grey Comforter
The only issue i have is when i got the comforter out of the packaging and unfolded it, unfortunately there was a hole in it. Besides that, the comforter is great. Way better than the one i had on before. Will prolly purchase another one soon.

Most Comfortable blanket!
Color: White, Size: Queen(90"*90")
Silky smooth and soft. The smooth side is cooler and good for summer nights while the patterned side provides a little more warmth for cold nights. Have not needed anything else. Works great for me - hot sleeper in Florida with AC at 73 and ceiling fan on. Might have to kick a leg out in the middle of the night or find part of the blanket that is not heated from my body and then I can stay cool. If the AC is turned down just one degree to 72, I stay cool throughout the whole night and sometimes cold. Blanket would probably be too warm at any household temperatures above 74 unless it was FL winter or a colder climate. Nevertheless, it is so comfortable on the skin and easy to move around in.
