Midaq Alley Author: Considered by many to be Mahfouz's best novel, Midaq Alley centers around the residents of one of the hustling, teeming back alleys of Cairo. No other novel so vividly evokes the sights and sounds of the city. The universality and timelessness of this book cannot be denied.

I really loved this book. It's the story of a group of people who live in Midaq Alley in a not-so-good part of Cairo, Egypt, and what evolves in life for a certain girl who lives in the Alley. Very good characters and a wonderful look at Cairo in the mid-20th century.
