Magic and realism of the desert (The prose of Ibrāhīm al-Kawnī)
(Katedra Arabistyki i Islamistyki, Uniwersytet Warszawski, 1995) Machut-Mendecka, Ewa; Department of Arabic and Islamic Studies, Faculty of Oriental Studies, University of Warsaw; Uniwersytet Warszawski
Many authors tried to explore the magic of the desert, but it was only the Libyan Ibrāhīm al-Kawnī who was able to introduce it to the literature on a larger scale. He was born in 1948, and began publishing in the 1970’s. Since that time a number of prose works appeared, mainly devoted to life in the desert.
