Utopia
Product details
Utopia by Ahmed Khaled Tawfik... “Now I understand why we isolated ourselves in Utopia... There is nothing left in this world but poverty and pale faces with bulging, hungry, savage eyes... Thirty years ago, these people had some rights, but today they are completely forgotten. These people pretend to be alive... They pretend to eat meat, they pretend to drink wine, and of course, they pretend to be drunk and to have forgotten their problems... They pretend to have the right to sin and transgress... They pretend to be human...” “Tawfik’s story is bleak and utterly convincing, and his characters are devoid of any hope.” It doesn’t surprise you to learn that the author is a professor of medicine (the anatomical details are terrifying), and he is also the best-selling horror writer in the Arab world. This story is a miniature masterpiece, and I challenge anyone not to read it in one sitting.”
