Memoirs of a Dinar, Arabic version 2nd ED
Dr. Dahesh
$60.00
An unusual novel which Dr. Dahesh had composed in less than 24 hours spread over 12 days (from the third to the fourteenth of January 1946).
The hero, a Dinar(a golden coin), by virtue of its transference from one hand to another roams several countries for almost a century. It wanders into cities, villages, palaces, cottages, monasteries, nighclubs; it travels in the air and dives to the bottom of the seas; it accompanies good and bad people, kings and commons; it listens to animals and witnesses two national liberation movements in India and England as well as two World Wars and later a third World War! Above all, it records its observations with the genius of a spellbinding storyteller and renders its judgments with the wisdom of a philosopher.
The book is a summary statement of the views of the author regarding society and its corruption, clergymen, politics, human rights, courts of justice, money, love, psychology of wars, art and literature. Underlying his harsh critical attitude is the author’s deep desire for reform.

The Correspondence Between Dr. Dahesh and Dr. Mohammad Hussein Haykal
Dr. Dahesh
$20.00
In the summer of 1951, the famous Egyptian writer, Dr. Mohammad Hussein Haykal, an ex-president of the Egyptian Senate House and the then proprietor of the two Egyptian newspapers, The Weekly Politics and The Daily politics, visited Lebanon. He heard the news of the oppressive persecution campaign mounted against Dr. Dahesh at the hands of the then President of the Lebanese Republic, Beshara el-Khoury; so he wrote to the Daheshist poet, Halim Dammous, expressing his desire to assist in defending the cause of a man unjustly persecuted. This letter to the Lebanese poet initiated a correspondence between Dr. Haykal and the founder of Daheshism, who was at that time unjustly stripped of his citizenship and living away from public view.
The letters of Dr. Dahesh mostly reveal the causes of persecution and the so-called “legal” procedures of the thinly veiled conspiracy against him, and his determination to restore his rights. On the other hand, the letters of Dr. Haykal express his view that stripping a person of his citizenship is worse than a death sentence by a firing squad. These letters express Dr. Haykal’s avowal to stir up Dr. Dahesh’s case in the Egyptian press in a manner similar to Voltaire’s defense in the famous Calas case.

The Song of Songs (Nashid al-Anshad) Arabic Version
Dr. Dahesh
$50.00
The Song of Songs which Solomon the Wise, had chanted 3000 years ago exerted a long lasting influence on world literature. A great number of writers rendered it in their own style.

Memoirs of Jesus of Nazareth V.1 Arabic Version
Dr. Dahesh
$40.00
The life of Christ until the age of 30 raises many unanswered questions: How did he spend his childhood days and his youth? How long did he stay with his parents in Egypt? Who received them as his guests there? Did he get any education? Did he perform any miracles prior to his miracle at Cana of Galilea? What is the attitude of his family towards him and his message? When did he meet Peter for the first time? Did he reveal any of his teachings before the proclamation of his message? Did the four gospels mention all his teachings or is it that some of them had not been revealed to the world?
This inspired book reveals three years of the Nazarene's life beginning at the age of twelve.

The Knell of Sorrows or The Lamentations of Jeremiah
Dr. Dahesh
$15.00
Dr. Dahesh is probably the first writer who rendered in his own style the Lamentations of Jeremiah in the city of Jerusalem after its ruin in the sixth century and the diaspora of its people. His version of the Lamentations stands out for its smoothely running expressions, and profusion of novel imagery which leave a deep impression. No doubt, the comparison between the old and new lamentations is an interesting topic for study.
The question remains: why did Dr. Dahesh recast these Lamentations? One wonders whether he wanted to stress divine justice which he believes in and preaches, or perhaps he had a further purpose—one related to the country which persecuted him.

“Whatever the case of Dr Dahesh is, everyone who meets him cannot but reach one conclusion that the man is a strange phenomenon in our society”. The newspaper “Al-Gareeda”
