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.

Man of Mystery
Iskandar Shahin
$36.00
“All the journalists who are my colleagues who did not believe in Daheshism at least unanimously agreed that the man is a phenomenon in every sense of the word. Iskandar Shahin
“Dr Dahesh opened for us all the doors of his house… every door opened unto a suite which differed completely from every other suite. It differed in its precious antiques, its oil paintings, and its piles of books or its stuffed birds”. The Newspaper Al-Liwa
“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”
“Daheshism is above all a spiritual notion… the transmigration of souls is a Divine mercy; if it didn’t exist, all human beings would have perished …” “Al- Isbuu’ Al- Arabi” Magazine.

A Writer of Prose and A Writer of Poetry V.1
Dr. Dahesh/Halim Dammous
$26.00
In this book, Dr. Dahesh rephrases most of what he has written between 1930 and 1950 into octave-rhymed stanzas; then the poet Halim Dammous “being aware,” as he says, “of the impact of these inspired words and of the origin of these heart-deep feelings,” transposes them from rhymed prose into rhymed verse.
In the verse version, the reader finds an almost total faithfulness to the original rhymed prose and at the same time an easy flow of rhythm.

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.

Strange Stories and Wonderful Tales Vol. 2 German Version
Dr. Dahesh
$49.00
This assortment of short stories confronts the reader with exciting plots, perplexing climaxes, and sudden unexpected denouements. The stories make the reader hold his breath at different junctures in the narrative and stirs in him feelings of wonder, surprise, and awe.
What is rather remarkable are the author’s views conveyed in these short stories: all creatures (human and nonhuman) are free and responsible, subject to the eternal laws of divine justice, man is not the only sentient being, for among animals and plants, there are some that enjoy a greater power of rational perception than man. Also the generic hiererical stratification on Earth is not a proof of spiritual superiority and sublimity. Moreover, there are other inhabited planets whose civilizations exceed hy far those of Earth.
