Recommending Siddeek Tawfeek
Alas I am not strong and well enough to write adequately on this subject, but even in a few words I can highly recommend him as a scholar and critic. My qualification to do so is that I have been in correspondence with him for years, he was my guest also at one point in New York, and he has translated a short book of mine into Arabic.
He is a man of great learning and sprightly intelligence. His knowledge of English literature surpasses that of many of his colleagues in England and America. His passion for his subject is excelled by no one I know.
He deserved nothing less than the highest commendation .
