This wry take on Kafka's novel The Trial revolves around its narrator's attempts to petition successfully the elusive ruling body of his country, known simply as "the Committee." Consequences for his actions range from the absurd to the hideous. Ibrahim offers an unbroken first-person narrative rendered in brief, crisp prose framed by a conspicuous absence of vivid imagery. Furthermore, the petitioner is a man without identity. The ideal antihero, he remains, as does his country, unnamed throughout the intricate plot with a locale suggestive of 1970s Cairo. The Committee pierces the inflammatory terrain between ordinary men, unbridled displays of power, and other broader concerns of the author's native Egypt. The novel's corrosive, shocking conclusion catapults satiric surrealism into a new realm.… (mais)

سالمه يا سلامه كوكا كولا جات بالسلامة
نشروا الاعلان ملو الجرنان جوا البراويز الدهبية
والتلفزيون بالصوت واللون كوكا كولا هي الاصلية
*************************************
بطعم كافكا الخاص جدا يهدينا صنع الله ابراهيم عمل أدبى اقل ما يوصف به انه تحفة فنية

فى ظل عالم كابوسى من فرط واقعيته تعيش اللجنة العسكرمدنية او المدنيعسكريه لتتحكم فى يديها بخيوط اللعبة و لتتراقص حولها الماريونت فى هدوء و تناغم

فحين يسأل احد اعضاء اللجنة عن نوع الرقص فلا تتساءل عن نوع من الرقص يقصد فهل يوجد غيره؟ ربما يجب ان تمتلك الذكاء الكافى لتخلع رابطة عنقك و لتتحزم بها و يا حبذا لو عقدت عقدتها على جنب ككبار الرقصات

و حين تسألك اللجنة عن اعظم منتوجات العصر فلتجيب بلا تردد انها الكوكاكولا فى كل عصر و كل مكان و اى لغة

**************************************


اشرب يا خفيف بطّل تخاريف
بلا طير الطور بلا وطنية
**************************************
و من الاشتراكية الى الحرب الى الرأسمالية الى السلام ربما لن نملك سوى ان نأكل نفسنا فى هدوء و بلا كثير من الازعاج لمجتمع يشرب الكوكاكولا دافئة و الماء اسن بنى اللون و يمارس التحرش كنوع من التسلية

فى قصة موازيه ل"المحاكمة" ل كافكا يبدع صنع الله ابراهيم فى تصوير تطور مجتمعنا و مأساة و ملهاة مثقف كل عصر

بحثت عن سبب يمنعنى من اعطاء ال5 نجوم و حين فشلت قررت ان اهدى عزيزتى الكوكاكولا ال5 نجوم ...لية لا؟
;)

***************************************

كوكا كولا تفوق و تروق ضد الافكار الهدامة
سالمه يا سلامه طيري بينا ورفرفي يا حمامة
سالمه يا سلامه على مصر التانية أم علامة

Roman 'kafkaïen', avec en prime des thèmes locaux intéressants (antimondialistes avant l’heure) et un dénouement original ( )

En allegori över det "ofria fria" samhället i Egypten under Sadats styre.. och kanske innan det också. Intressant, men inte helt begripligt. En form av litteratur som man inte alldeles lätt kommer i kontakt med. ( )
  helices | Feb 7, 2008 |
This a slim, more or less interesting novella by one of Egypt's most popular novelists. Anyone who has read (or even heard rumors of) Kafka's The Trial, or The Castle will pick up on the influence immediately.

What makes the novel interesting, to me, is that is a sharp, humorous satire on consumer culture (particularly the evil conspiracy known as "globalism") from a non-western (non-DeLillo) perspective.

In its 158 pages there are baroque conspiracies involving coca-cola, Walter Mondale, contemporary Egyptian history, The Trilateral Commission, street vendors, pornography, sexism, passive-aggressive acts of valor, coerced dancing capped off with a public prostate exam (at a board meeting) and an executed sentence of autophagy.

The book's charm is completely undermined by its implausible ending (I won't give it away). Had the author chosen to tell the story in the 3rd person, much awkwardness would have been avoided. ( )
