Abstract
Abstract Naguib Mahfouz (1911–2006) is one of the best known and most prolific novelists of the twentieth century and the first Arab to have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature (in 1988). Mahfouz's early writings openly criticize the colonial rule under which Egyptians lived. His postcolonial novels are marked by characters and narratives that allegorically describe and comment on contemporary Egyptian society in a nuanced and complex way.
