- Book Synopsis
- Abdel Latif El-Menawy met and interviewed the late Pope Shnouda, the third Patriarch of Egypt many times during his rule. As a journalist in modern Egypt he was constantly abreast of affairs at the Coptic Society. He had unparalleled access to the crisis stories unravelling on Egypt's streets, often due to the confrontation between religion and politics. The Copts explains how Christianity, as Egypt's first faith, survived the Arab invasion and the arrival of Islam. Today's uneasy relationship between the two faiths is discussed, alongside the differences between the Coptic Church and its Western sister. It will give accounts, never published before, of direct confrontations between Late Pope Shnouda and both late Presidents Anwar Sadat and Hosni Mubarak.
