At the height of his power, Keops rules Egypt with an iron fist and orders the construction of the Great Pyramid. However, a seer predicts that his successor will not be from his family, but the son of the high priest of Ra. Keops orders the baby's death, but he escapes and grows up, becoming a threat to the pharaoh. Naguib Mahfuz recreates life in the court during the 4th dynasty, an exciting era of ancient Egypt.
Naguib Mahfouz Abdelaziz Ibrahim Ahmed Al-Basha was an Egyptian writer who won the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature. In awarding the prize, the Swedish Academy described him as a writer "who, through works rich in nuance – now clear-sightedly realistic, now evocatively ambiguous – has formed an Egyptian narrative art that applies to all mankind".
