Lyrics Alley is the evocative story of your affluent Sudanese family shaken by the shifting capabilities in their country and the near-tragedy that threatens the legacy they've built for many years. In 1950's Sudan, the powerful Abuzeid dynasty has amassed a lot of money through their trading company. With Mahmoud Bey at its helm, they can do no wrong. However when Mahmoud's son, Nur, the brilliant, good looking heir to the business empire, suffers a debilitating incident, the family stands divided when confronted with an uncertain future. As British rule nears its end, the united states is torn between modernizing affects and the decision of customs past - a discord shown in the growing tensions between Mahmoud's two wives: Younger, Nabilah, longs to come back to Egypt and evade "backward-looking" Sudan; while Waheeba lives customarily behind veils and closed down doors. It isn't until Nur asserts himself beyond your cultural limitations of his parents that his own soul and the frayed bonds of his family get started to mend. Moving from Sudanese alleys to cosmopolitan Cairo and a decimated postcolonial Britain, this sweeping tale of desire, reduction, despair, and reconciliation is one of the very most accomplished portraits ever discussed Sudanese society during independence.
