A review by aldwynreads
Children of the Alley by Naguib Mahfouz

3.0

This book is said to mirror the different stories of the history of man. It is based in a poor, dusty neighborhood outside of a paradise with high walls where the grandfather of the ally lives. The stories are really spectacular, and it is great to start thinking in the streets of this world, seeing and wishing after what is behind the high walls, admiring the heroes who think differently and want to change the alley, following all the family and love stories that are a part of it.
