55.00

Sugar Street, the third and final volume of Naguib Mahfouz's Cairo Trilogy, concludes the epic tale of the Abd al-Jawad family. Set in the early 20th century, it follows the continuing struggles of the family as they face the repercussions of their individual choices amidst political, social, and cultural upheaval in Egypt. The narrative is largely centered on the next generation of the family, particularly the grandsons of Ahmad and Amina, as they confront their own desires, ideologies, and the tumultuous world around them. The novel delves into the complexities of life in Cairo, where issues of class, tradition, and modernity collide. As the characters struggle with personal and political aspirations, Mahfouz explores themes of resistance, rebellion, and the fight for independence, both on a personal level and within the broader national context.

The Cairo Trilogy by Naguib Mahfouz is a monumental work of literature that offers a rich and intricate portrayal of Egyptian society during the early 20th century. Comprising three novels—Palace Walk, Palace of Desire, and Sugar Street—the trilogy follows the lives of the Al-Jawad family, primarily focusing on the complex relationships between the family members and their changing roles within a rapidly evolving society. The patriarch, Ahmad, is a strict and authoritarian figure, while his children, particularly his sons, struggle with the tension between tradition and the desire for personal freedom. Set against the backdrop of Egypt’s political and social transformation, the trilogy paints a vivid picture of a nation caught between its ancient heritage and modern aspirations. Mahfouz’s work explores themes of power, generational conflict, and the impact of societal change on individual lives. Through richly developed characters and a blend of personal and political narratives, The Cairo Trilogy delves into the complexities of family, love, and the pursuit of identity. Mahfouz’s keen insights into the human condition and his portrayal of Cairo as a bustling, multifaceted city make this trilogy a landmark in Arabic literature. It earned Mahfouz the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1988, solidifying his place as one of the great literary figures of the 20th century. The Cairo Trilogy remains a timeless and influential exploration of modern Egyptian life.
