Memoirs of a Dinar
A Novel

by Dr. Dahesh

A captivating novel, by an outstanding Lebanese humanist, and  
philosopher, relates the story of a golden coin (the “Dinar”), its  
experiences and adventures through a lifetime journey among humans   
a journey, which began at the moment of its extraction as raw metal  
from the depths of the Earth.

During a span of ninety years, the Dinar wanders in the world  from  
country to country, culture to culture and from hand to hand through  
all walks of life. Spending ample time with his varied owners, he is  
capable of judging their values. He even meets historically prominent  
figures, witnesses World Wars I & II, and yet another!

Let us join the Dinar on this epic journey and through him discover  
the author’s interpretation of society through time and space.

The book is heartily recommended to public as well as specialist  
libraries.
