Cairo / Kolkata – January 2026
Penprints is pleased to announce that The Interpreter, the latest novel by acclaimed Egyptian writer Ashraf Aboul-Yazid, is now officially available for sale worldwide on Amazon and through the Penprints Store.
The Interpreter is a deeply moving and emotionally resonant novel that weaves together love, loss, memory, and the quiet inner battles of a woman navigating past trauma and present responsibility. At the heart of the story is Mohsen, who enters the protagonist’s life like a miracle, only for his sudden tragic coma to alter the course of her existence forever.
Through intimate reflections shaped by war, grief, social judgment, and an unrelenting longing for personal freedom, the novel unfolds like a heartfelt confession. Rich in emotional depth and vivid cultural detail, The Interpreter explores the fragility of human relationships and the enduring resilience of the human spirit. It is a haunting and beautifully written narrative that lingers with the reader long after the final page.
