Leg Over Leg

Leg over Leg (Arabic: الساق على الساق, romanized: al-saaq ealaa al-saaq) is a book by Ahmad Faris Shidyaq, considered one of the founders of modern Arabic literature.

Detailing the life of 'the Fariyaq', the alter ego of the author, offering commentary on intellectual and social issues, it is described as "always edifying and often hilarious", "the finest, wildest, funniest and most surprising novel in Arabic", and "[an] unclassifiable book".

In 2014, NYU Press published an English translation by Humphrey T. Davies as part of the Library of Arabic Literature series.

The author did not publish it in his homeland, Lebanon, likely because of the book's comments on religion.
