This controversial bestselling novel in the Arab world reveals the political corruption, sexual repression, religious extremism, and modern hopes of Egypt today. All manner of flawed and fragile humanity reside in the Yacoubian Building, a once-elegant temple of Art Deco splendor now slowly decaying in the smog and bustle of downtown Cairo: a fading aristocrat and self-proclaimed "scientist of women"; a sultry, voluptuous siren; a devout young student, feeling the irresistible pull toward fundamentalism; a newspaper editor helplessly in love with a policeman; a corrupt and corpulent politician, twisting the Koran to justify his desires. These disparate lives careen toward an explosive conclusion in Alaa Al Aswany's remarkable international bestseller. Teeming with frank sexuality and heartfelt compassion, this book is an important window on to the experience of loss and love in the Arab world.
小说挺有味道的,写90年代一座70岁高龄的豪华老楼里代表社会各阶层、群体的人进进出出的生活,又在这里生活很久的破落老显贵zaki,有扎破了头皮挤进来的Malak、有被情人安排进来的Abd、也有看门者儿子的Taha,他们最后各有自己不同的结局,但没一个是我喜欢的,可能这就是现实主义批判小说?
