In this gripping and suspenseful novella from the Egyptian Nobel Prize-winner, three young friends survive interrogation by the secret police, only to find their lives poisoned by suspicion, fear, and betrayal. At a Cairo café in the 1960s, a legendary former belly dancer lovingly presides over a boisterous family of regulars, including a group of idealistic university students. One day, amid reports of a wave of arrests, three of the students disappear: the excitable Hilmi, his friend Ismail, and Ismail's beautiful girlfriend Zaynab. When they return months later, they are apparently unharmed and yet subtly and profoundly changed. It is only years later, after their lives have been further shattered, that the narrator pieces together the young people's horrific stories and learns how the government used them against one another. In a riveting final chapter, their torturer himself enters the Café and sits among his former victims, claiming a right to join their society of the disillusioned. Now translated into English for the first time, Naguib Mahfouz's tale of the insidious effects of government-sanctioned torture and the suspension of rights and freedoms in a time of crisis is shockingly contemporary.

«Me gustó aquel sitio por su excelente café, el agua pura, las tazas y los vasos limpios, la dulzura de Qaránfula, la grave dignidad de los ancianos, la vitalidad de los jóvenes y la belleza de la chica.»Así describe el narrador (acaso el mismo autor) el ambiente y los personajes que frecuentan el Café Karnak, cálido punto de unión entre el pasado y el presente. Cuandno sin previo aviso tres jóvenes dejan de acudir al café, Qaránfula, su dueña, una bella mujer madura que fue bailarina, empieza a investigar. Descubrirá sus historias entrelazadas y la cara más dura de la revolución. Esta novela, situada en el Egipto de los años 70, nos traslada con sensibilidad al corazón de un cambio histórico y sus dolorosas contradicciones.

Karnak Café adalah karya memorial tentang situasi Mesir di akhir 1960-an. Kala itu, penduduk negeri piramid ini dirudung kekacauan dan kecemasan, terutama akibat kalah perang melawan Israel pada 1967. Pengkhianatan, saling tuduh dan curiga, serta balas dendam menjadi bagian dari kehidupan masyarakat. Karya ini juga mengungkap ketidaknyamanan politik warga Mesir akibat sikap otoriter pemerintah. Dalam novel ini, sosok Hilmi Hamada, Ismail al-Syekh, dan Zainab Diyab menjadi potret penderitaan masyarakat Mesir. Lantaran berbeda faham dan keyakinan politik dengan pemerintah, mereka diberangus kehidupannya. Menariknya, novel ini tak melulu menuturkan prahara politik. Di tengah kekusutan sosial-politik di negeri para raja kala itu, terpapar pula kisah cinta Qurunfula, mantan penari legendaris berparas ayu, pemilik sekaligus daya pikat Kafe Karnak.

Vers le milieu des années 1960, dans le café cairote Al-Karnak que gère une ancienne danseuse, le narrateur fait la connaissance de trois étudiants : Hilmi, Isma'il et Zaynab. Le premier est l'amant de la gérante, et les deux autres, amis d'enfance, s'aiment tendre-ment. Tous les trois se considèrent comme des enfants de la révolution de 1952 et défendent ardemment ses principes et ses réalisations. Mais un jour ils sont arrêtés par la police politique qui les suspecte d'appartenir au mouvement des Frères musulmans... Ecrit en 1971 et publié en 1974, ce roman a eu un retentissement considérable, et le film qui en a été tiré, avec à l'affiche les plus grandes vedettes du cinéma égyptien, a longtemps été censuré à la télévision. Mahfouz, talentueux conteur, y fait du petit café le microcosme d'une Egypte en train de perdre ses repères.

Alt und Jung, Arm und Reich, Männer und selbst einzelne Frauen treffen sich im Karnak-Café, angelockt vom guten Kaffee und der schillernden Kurunfula, einer ehemaligen Tänzerin und Besitzerin des Cafés. Sie erzählen aus ihrem Leben, teilen Freude und Leid und manch müßiggängerische Stunde. Als drei junge Stammgäste plötzlich verschwinden und später verstört zurückkehren, ist es vorbei mit der heiteren Kaffeehausatmosphäre. Aus der einstigen Oase der Kameradschaft wird ein Ort des Argwohns, an dem sich die alte Vertrautheit zwischen den Menschen nur schwer behaupten kann. Entstanden kurz nach dem Sechstagekrieg 1967, ist Karnak-Café ein wichtiges Zeitdokument, das bis heute von beklemmender Aktualität bleibt.

The coffeehouse is a microcosm of the larger Egyptian society with its history of multiculturalism and great diversity. It is not only a social space which was created and shaped by the people over decades in their streets, neighbourhoods and cities, but it also occupies a sphere in the popular imagination full of stories, memories and social networks. Despite the coffeehouse's cultural centrality and socio-political importance in Egypt, academic research and publications on its significance remain sparse. This volume aims to fill this gap by presenting, for the first time in English, a full study analysing the importance of the coffeehouse as an urban phenomenon, with its cultural, historical, economic and political significance in contemporary Egyptian society. The volume shows how historically the coffeehouse has always played a key role as a commercial enterprise; and culturally, as a place for rich literary and artistic production which has multi-layered representations in Egyptian novels, cinema and popular music, amongst other genres. Economically, the coffeehouse has been vital for accessing job opportunities, especially for informal workers; in addition to having played a crucial role in political mobilisation during decisive historical events, as well as in recent years during the 2011 revolution and its aftermath. Through extended interviews with six residents in Cairo, the authors further examine the role and influence of the coffeehouse as a significant feature of contemporary Egyptian life and urban landscape.
