Book Description: In his new and wonderful novel, “The Sunset Oasis”, which met with public success and great critical acclaim, it refers to the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the British occupation of Egypt, where the Egyptian police officer, Mahmoud Abdel-Zaher, is sent to Siwa Oasis because the authorities suspect him of his sympathy for the revolutionary ideas of Jamal al-Din al-Afghani and Ahmed Orabi. So he accompanies his Irish wife, Catherine, who is passionate about antiquities and is looking for the tomb of Alexander the Great, to immerse them in a new world of great richness and privacy that forces them and the people of the oasis to confront themselves at a time when opportunism, betrayal, and the desire for love and heroism mixed together.
