"Hassan; or, The Child of the Pyramid: An Egyptian Tale" by Hon. Charles A. Murray is a historical fiction novel likely written in the late 19th century. The book revolves around Hassan, a young boy raised in an Arab encampment in Egypt, who is faced with the revelation of his mysterious origins. The narrative explores themes of identity, belonging, and cultural heritage against the backdrop of Egypt's rich historical landscape. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to Hassan, who is nearly sixteen and grappling with conflicts related to his upbringing. After a violent encounter with another youth that leads to a discussion about his lineage, Hassan learns of the secret surrounding his birth and is told he is not the biological son of Sheik Sâleh, the leader of his tribe. This revelation initiates a quest for his true origins, prompting him to seek out his real parents. The story sets the stage for Hassan’s journey of self-discovery, as he prepares to leave the only home he has known and embark on a new adventure filled with uncertainties and potential revelations about his past.
