«El espejismo» is the novel by Naguib Mahfuz, published by Plaza y Janés in 1991 in hardcover (335 pages, in Spanish).
The novel unfolds in a space where dreams and reality intersect, and from there reflects on the illusions that sustain life. The narrative plays with the idea of the mirage to show how the desired and the apparent become confused in everyday experience.
It belongs to the Narrativa collection from Plaza y Janés and is framed within twentieth-century Egyptian literature.
For readers interested in twentieth-century Egyptian narrative and in stories that explore the boundary between the real and the dreamed.
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".
