This pioneering work of philosophical fiction blends Islamic philosophy, 12th-century philosophy, and medieval literature into a compact, timeless narrative about a self-discovery journey, enlightenment themes, and the exploration of human reason. Hayy s intellectual development and quest for truth read like an ancient thought experiment that still challenges readers today.This edition, republished by Alpha Editions, restores a text out of print for decades and reintroduces Ibn Tufayl s masterpiece to modern audiences.
