Book Description
There are two ways to tell historical novels: A comprehensive narrative, concerned with counting numbers and counting material achievements, that does not care about humans as much as it cares about stones! According to these narratives, our lives as human beings do not matter to anyone except our families and loved ones! Like it or not, we are merely objectifying sentences in history whose selves and dreams are crushed in favor of gigantic national projects, sacred religious narratives, established human myths, and abstract imaginative symbolic representations! But in contrast to this, there are deconstructive novels that delve into the details and explain the human stories behind the statistics. These novels are not satisfied with what is written in the books, but they search for what happened on the ground. These narratives are not concerned with the results of the exercise of power, but they focus closely on the deep symbolic meanings of this power and the evidence of its exercise on people. They are not concerned with building the stone, but they are more interested in reading the lives of the people who joined together to build this stone, sacrificing their lives and dreams, forced or chosen, knowingly or unwillingly. ignorance Between these two narratives, this book attempts to read the modern history of Egypt from Muhammad Ali until the Cairo fire!
