Tawfiq al-Hakim or Tawfik el-Hakim was an Egyptian writer. He is one of the pioneers of the Arabic novel and drama. According to scholar and translator Roger Allen, "The triumphs and failures that are represented by the reception of his enormous output of plays are emblematic of the issues that have confronted the drama genre as it has endeavoured to adapt its complex modes of communication to the societies of the Arab world."
