Memoirs of a Dinar Spanish Version (Memorias de un Dinar)
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.

My Songs
Dr. Dahesh
$25.00
Most of Dr. Dahesh's books which may be classified as emotive literature carry pieces which have such dominant motifs as the insignificance of worldly life, the ephemeral nature of its hopes, the falsity of its glroies, the corruption of men and their consequent misery, praise and love of death and yearning to it, longing for the world of the Spirit and hope for deliverance from material bondage, and happiness in the eternal paradisical gardens. The author collected these pieces in this book which he entitled My Songs. The title signifies the heart-deep attachment of these pieces to his soul.
This book is different from other books in the same literary category, but so are the purposes of the author. It is the most keen expression of the author's spiritual alienation in this world.
