The Book of Khalid

Ameen Rihani

First published 1911

Khalid and Shakib leave Lebanon for New York and carry their arguments about art, faith, freedom, and modern life across the Atlantic and back. Ameen Rihani's hybrid novel moves between satire, romance, spiritual searching, and philosophical reflection as its restless hero tries to imagine a life joining East and West.
