The Beginning and the End by Naguib Mahfouz
Includes, for each of the 360 degrees of the zodiac: the symbolical picture, an interpretation in present-day psychological significance, a keyword for use in quick or at sight analysis, the positive and negative influences, the formula to determine the relationship between these symbols, and illustrated with 1000 horoscopes of well-known people.
Naguib Mahfouz was born in Cairo in 1911 and began writing when he was seventeen. A student of philosophy and an avid reader, his works range from reimaginings of ancient myths to subtle commentaries on contemporary Egyptian politics and culture. Over a career that lasted more than five decades, he wrote 33 novels, 13 short story anthologies, numerous plays, and 30 screenplays. Of his many works, most famous is The Cairo Trilogy, consisting of Palace Walk (1956), Palace of Desire (1957), and Sugar Street (1957), which focuses on a Cairo family through three generations, from 1917 until 1952. In 1988, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, the first writer in Arabic to do so. He died in August 2006.
