Description
Egyptians are known among the Arabs as awlad al-nukta, Sons of the Jokes, to highlight the centrality of humour in their culture both in times of oppression and popular upheaval. This book looks at the literary expression of Egyptian humour in the novels of Mustajab, Shalabi, and Abu Julayyil: their modern tricksters, wise fools, and antiheroes revive the comic tradition while innovating the language of contemporary fiction.
