The Search by Naguib Mahfouz is a captivating novel that delves into themes of love, loss, and existential inquiry. The story follows Saber, a man grappling with a deep sense of emptiness after the death of his mother, who had been his guiding force. Her passing pushes him to embark on a journey to find his estranged father, whom he has never known.
