Modern Egyptian literature, particularly the novel genre, demonstrates its national characteristics through the vividness and uniqueness of its writers' styles. Although the features of the formation and development of the novel genre and the works of its representatives have been studied to some extent in the literature of Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Tunisia, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, and several other Arab countries of the 20th century, the work of the famous representative of Egyptian literature Salwa Bakr has been relatively little studied.
