Distant Train de Ibrahim Abdel Megid

Distant Train: Middle East Literature in Translation

Autor Ibrahim Abdel Megid Traducere de Hosam Aboul-Ela
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 apr 2007
Sheds light on the dreams, customs, and everyday concerns of people living in historic obscurity on the fringe of the glitzy, petrodollar kingdoms of the Middle East. This tale begins on a worksite in Egypt's western desert. In the middle of nowhere, railway men and locals wait in hope for the annual return of a "distant train."
