The Nobel Prize-winning Egyptian Mahfouz evokes not only the history of an alley in Cairo, a world that las long since vanished, but also provides great insight into a modern Muslim's view of the prophets, putting them into a familiar context. He turns the tale of a modern Egyption family into a parable, retelling the lives of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad.
