تابع ...العناصر التي شكلت وصنعت الروعة في رواية48- - دار الباشا حسن نصرتونس


- "Nasr’s hero in this multi-layered novel develops a deep humanity as he describes with almost mystical grace his tortured passage through life.

- Born in Dar al-Basha, a busy quarter of the old city of Tunis, the protagonist experiences a dreadful childhood of physical and psychological abuse and rejection.

- Finally he flees his tyrannical father and roams the world for 40 years, seeking escape from a life he could not understand and trying to come to terms with himself and the world.

- In the moving ending, he returns to his childhood home, generous spirited and purged of bitterness.

- Often impressionistic, Nasr’s writing is dominated by sensual imagery of colors, sounds and smells.

- Descriptions of the surrounding world frequently contrast with the hero’s inner turmoil and give a sense of continuity to balance his fragmented perception of it.

- Beneath the surface lies a stratum of Sufi thought, and below that a layer of anti-colonialism.

- The translation is excellent, and Hutchins maintains a consistent style that does justice to the Arabic original.
- This fine novel, Nasr’s first appearance in English, is a fine example of modern Arabic fiction from North Africa.

- "Return to Dar al-Basha is a semi-autobiographical novel describing a boy’s Tunisian childhood during the era of nationalistic resistance against French colonial rule.

- Taken from his mother and raised in his father’s home, physically abused and emotionally neglected, he grows up into a perpetual wanderer. Questioning his inability to set roots, he explores the streets of Tunis, recalls his childhood introduction to Islamic mysticism and Sufism, and braces himself to see his father again.

- An evocative, heartfelt tale, providing an unforgettably vivid impression of Tunisian life through a child’s eyes."
