In the press

“Beyond Paradise”

“Ez-Eldin’s narrative style gently dissects, she treats all characters with humanity and kindness, but with consistent honesty” — (Qantara)

“The orchards of Basra”

“This is Mansoura Ez-Eldin’s fifth novel. One of her generations most distinct and accomplished voices… A complex and deeply researched work of metafiction that draws heavily on the Arab-Islamic canon, this novel plays with notions of reality and reason” — (Al ahram)
