   CAIRO - A museum commemorating the life and works of Egyptian novelist
   Naguib Mahfouz has opened in Cairo, nearly 13 years after the Nobel
   laureate's death.

   The Naguib Mahfouz Museum and Creativity Center houses the belongings
   and personal library of Mahfouz, who won the 1988 Nobel Prize for
   Literature -- the only Arab to do so.
