Ikbal El Alaily (died 1984) was an Egyptian surrealist writer, cofounder of the journal La Part du Sable.[1]
Life
Ikbal El Alaily, known to friends as Boula, was a granddaughter of the poet Ahmed Shawqi. Her parents were Muslim, though she was already a nonbeliever by her teens. In 1939 she met and fell in love with Georges Henein. Despite parental opposition, the pair were inseparable, though they only formally married in 1954.[2]
El Alaily's 1945 anthology, The Virtue of Germany, made the case for German romanticism as a precursor of surrealism.[2]
After her husband's death in 1973, she prepared his unpublished work for publication.[2] She died in 1984.[3]
