Half A Day By Naguib Mahfouz

Overall this story confused me, at first I felt like I understood it, then time passed, and some more time passed, until basically this kindergartner turned into the old man. It was well written but at the same time in the beginning I thought it was written in present tense, but later realized I was wrong. In the end this was just a story about an older man reminiscing about his younger days and his experiences that shaped him into the man he has turned into.
