Title : Vienna at Night - Naguib Mahfouz - Book

Summary :

Cairo in the 1930s, on the eve of World War II: as an ancient nation enters modernity, a family finds itself faced with the difficulties of daily life. Left destitute after the death of their father, the mother, an omnipresent figure—a living incarnation of eternal Egypt—and her four children manage to overcome a series of trials, allowing them to hope for better days. But this was to ignore the curse that haunts this family. Through the individual destinies of his characters, Naguib Mahfouz leads us into a profound meditation on the secrets of life and human beings, free will and fate, Good and Evil.
