From the Publisher:
In the late 1960's a group of friends meet night after night on a house-boat moored along the banks of the Nile to escape the seriousness overtaking their country. But one night, art and reality collide--with unforeseen consequences. At once thrilling and serious, Adrift On The Nile is a tale that exposes the crisis of man--and artist--in modern times.
About the Author:
Naguib Mahfouz was born in Cairo in 1911 and began writing when he was seventeen. His nearly forty novels and hundreds of short stories range from re-imaginings of ancient myths to subtle commentaries on contemporary Egyptian politics and culture. Of his many works, most famous is The Cairo Trilogy, consisting of Palace Walk (1956), Palace of Desire (1957), and Sugar Street (1957), which focuses on a Cairo family through three generations, from 1917 until 1952. In 1988, he was the first writer in Arabic to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. He died in August 2006.
