It is a life that ripples through the book with all its members, components, and people. It tells us the news of an important period in the history of Egypt, beginning in the early twentieth century, and in it we see a cohesion between the daily events of that family and the events of the motherland groaning under the weight of the occupation, which resulted in the 1919 AD revolution. We see in it the head of the family, the traditional mother, the neighborhood, the students and the revolutionaries.. We see Cairo from behind the mashrabiya.. We see its traditional events written in a completely unconventional way, bringing them to the climax of maturity in the Egyptian novel. We follow these events in between the two palaces, one neighborhood and another, in the palace of longing, when the close ones and the family disperse, and finally in Sukkariyeh, when the grandchildren have grown old and the grandparents have grown old.
