Three classic novels by renowned feminist writer and activist Nawal El Saadawi.
A peasant family is torn apart by a village mayor and his lackeys in God Dies by the Nile, Saadawi’s dark parable of poverty, female exploitation, injustice and religious hypocrisy in rural Egypt.
In Searching the disappearance of her lover causes Fouda to question everything.
Circling Song is a hypnotic meditation on gender, class and state violence told through the story of two mysterious twins.
Nawal El Saadawi was born in a village outside Cairo, Egypt, in 1931. A trained medical doctor, she wrote landmark works on the oppression of Arab women including Woman at Point Zero (1973), God Dies by the Nile (1976) and The Hidden Face of Eve (1977). After being imprisoned by Anwar Sadat’s government for criticising the regime, she founded the Arab Women’s Solidarity Association in 1982, before being forced into exile in later life due to death threats by religious extremists. She returned to Egypt in 1996, running for president in 2005 until government persecution forced her to withdraw. Saadawi died in Egypt in 2021.
