I would like someone to put me in touch with Azza Shaaban. I very much believe that she may have heard the story from Galal Ghazali, but the writing is hers. That is a moot point, but I would like to pursue those stories further for publication. Since we are talking about the still pristine place where such stories emanate I would like to draw everyone's attention to Hossam Fakhr's latest book 'Hikayat Amina'. It is in the tradition of Mafeesh except maybe for older kids. Or older people who have not given up on being children. Mafeesh and Amina both tell me that the story is being completed, but that we are not paying attention because it has not yet been compliled in a friendly user volume and published as the latest in the longest tradition of story telling in the world.. Fakhr's book is published by Merit. Look it up. He can be reached at Abouyoussef@hotmail.com Now how can I get hold of Azza Shaaban. Thanks for a wonderful blog. Somaya Ramadan
