The Days is a three-part autobiography of Taha Hussein, one of modern Egypt’s greatest writers and thinkers. An Egyptian Childhood (1929) tells of Hussein’s childhood in a small village in Upper Egypt, as he learned to come to terms with his blindness and win a place at Cairo’s prestigious Azhar University. The Stream of Days: A Student at the Azhar (1939), is an enthralling picture of student life in Egypt in the early 1900s. A Passage to France (1973), carries the story on to his attainment of a doctorate at the Sorbonne.
