Impact
The final volume of the Cairo Trilogy from controversial Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz is As-Sukkariyya (Sugar Street) in which the pillars of a family's life crumble all round while being stuck in a rut, eventually becoming a lackluster shell of their once cohesive selves. The farther they are from easy street, the more nostalgically sweet it becomes.

A Bonbone in a bar. Ultimately vacuous but hits that empty spot in the gut & hollows it out further with greater cravings for more of this most excellent stuff.
