This author uses stream-of-consciousness narrative to convey the thoughts of a former prisoner in The Thief and the Dogs. In another work, one character breaks into a mansion to read a will, and three others fight for justice for the people of a nearby alley in different ways - a code of laws, a circle of disciples, and and army to defeat gangsters. That work, a parable for the story of Abrahamic faiths, follows the titular descendants of the mansion- owner Gebelawi. He is best-known in the West for works about the hypocritical el-Gawad patriarch and his family, the Cairo Trilogy. FTP, name this Egyptian author and winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature.
