About the book: 1973 / The national liberation movement in Egypt is the main theme of the work of Abd ar-Rahman al-Sharqawi. The novel "Fellah" is a social canvas dedicated to untouched for thousands of years, and quickly changing its appearance in the middle of the 20th century in the Egyptian village. The novel was written from life, and it is no coincidence that even the conflict of this work largely repeats the real events that occurred in the mid-sixties in a specific Egyptian village - in Kamshish. Published in Cairo in 1967.
