Armed with his European education, the prosecutor is confident that he will dispense justice in this rural outpost. But he finds himself increasingly befuddled by an alien legal system and the clueless bureaucrats who enforce it. As he teases out the facts of the case only one thing becomes clear: justice is never as simple as it seems. First published in 1937, this classic by one of the Arab world's leading dramatists has lost none of its bite.
