The Nile River, a symbol of continuity and change, has always served as a dynamic setting where people embark on transformative journeys, both physical and psychological. Naguib Mahfouz's "Chatter Over The Nile" weaves together personal narratives with broader political and historical contexts, particularly against the backdrop of Egypt's post-colonial struggles. Through a post-colonial lens, this paper examines how the novel reflects the political circumstances in Egypt during the time of its setting and publication. In "Chatter Over The Nile," the Nile River is a potent symbol of Egypt's national identity and collective consciousness, as a group of elite, middle class and low class people embark on a journey aboard a boat along the Nile, their experiences mirror Egypt's trajectory as a nation navigating the challenges of post-colonization, national identity, and political upheaval. Anis who used to work as a teacher has been invited to a small boat in the Nile where everyone smokes drugs to forget the reality and hypocrisy of Egyptian life. This paper claims that Mahfouz's "Chatter Over The Nile” represents Egypt's precarious position on the world stage and it's struggle for autonomy and agency in a rapidly changing geopolitical landscape. Mahfouz employs the ending scene of the collapse of the boat world as a metaphor for Egypt's vulnerability and resilience in the face of external threats and internal discord, ultimately offering a foreseeing epic of Egypt’s defeat in The 1967 Naksa which prepared the foundation for a neoliberal Middle East, and maintained the establishment of Israel’s militarism and colonial Zionism. Mahfouz reflects on Egypt's political circumstances, historical resonances, and the Nile's liminal spaces, inviting us to traverse its waters alongside the complexities of self-discovery and personal growth. The river becomes a metaphorical threshold inviting Anis and his companions to confront their fears, embrace their vulnerabilities. Mahfouz's depiction of the Nile as a symbol of constant change underscores the universal themes of national identity and transformation, reflecting on the socio-political atmosphere across the Arab cultural boundaries. "Chatter Over The Nile" transcends the boundaries of time and place, offering us a geopolitical reflection on the complexities of post-colonial identity and the ongoing quest for sovereignty and self-determination in Egypt and beyond.
