The Day the Leader Was Killed
From the Nobel Prize laureate and author of the acclaimed Cairo Trilogy, a beguiling and artfully compact novel set in Sadat's Egypt. The time is 1981, Anwar al-Sadat is president, and Egypt is lurching into the modern world. Set against this backdrop, The Day the Leader Was Killed relates the tale of a middle-class Cairene family. Rich with irony and infused with political undertones, the story is narrated alternately by the pious and mischievous family patriarch Muhtashimi Zayed, his hapless grandson Elwan, and Elwan's headstrong and beautiful fiancee Randa. The novel reaches its climax with the assassination of Sadat on October 6, 1981, an event around which the fictional plot is skillfully woven. The Day the Leader Was Killed brings us the essence of Mahfouz's genius and is further proof that he has, in the words of the Nobel citation, "formed an Arabic narrative art that applies to all mankind."
A History of the Seljuks
For the first time in English, this book provides a comprehensive history of the entire Seljuk period of Middle Eastern history. The Seljuks entered the Middle East from Central Asia in the mid-11th century, establishing the first Turkish Empire in the region between China and Byzantium. This empire lasted until the mid-13th century. In his Introduction, Leiser synthesizes and evaluates current Western and Turkish research on Seljuk history, highlighting the scholarship of Seljuk specialist Ibrahim Kafesoglu. In the main body of the book, Leiser presents his translation of Kafesoglu's seven-chapter monograph covering all aspects of Seljuk history--political, social, and cultural--from the rise of the empire to its collapse. The final section deals with the tumultuous dispute between Kafesoglu and another Seljuk scholar, Osman Turan, who subsequently accused Kafesoglu of plagiarism and of poor scholarship.

Probing literary and historical sources, Bernard Lewis traces the development of Islamic political language from the time of the Prophet to the present. His analysis of documents written in Arabic, Persian, and Turkish illuminates differences between Muslim political thinking and Western political theory, and clarifies the perception, discussion, and practices of politics in the Islamic world. "Lewis's own style, combining erudition with a simple elegance and subtle humor, continues to inspire. In an era of specialization and narrowing academic vision, he stands alone as one who dese...
