Proud Beggars

Albert Kosiri''s novel "Beggars and Nobles" is one of his most famous novels, perhaps as a result of it being turned into a movie directed by Asmaa Al-Bakri entitled "Beggars and Nobles" 1991 AD. The central character in the novel is "Jawhar," a university professor who teaches philosophy at the university, and he leaves this job; He works as an accountant in a brothel, where he has money to help him use hashish and lives in a world that he sees as far from the corruption of bourgeois society, which he does not believe in and whose morals. It is a philosophy of rejection, revolution against everything that is constant, mockery of the world, and complete bias towards the poor, the homeless, the beggars, the outcast, the marginal, those who smoke hashish, and the addicts.
