The Hakawati
From a brilliantly inventive storyteller, this exuberant novel is an Arabian Nights for our time. The Hakawati is a kaleidoscopic novel that captures all the stories and myths of the Middle East. Intertwining the history of Osama al-Kharrat and his family with the knowledge passed down to him through his 'hakawati' - or storyteller - grandfather, the tales form a dazzling picture of the region, past and present - both mythic and painfully real. Born in Beirut, living in San Francisco, Alameddine not only spans both Western and Middle-Eastern culture, but does so as one of the most mischevious and inventive writers at work
