Social injustice is handled as a postmodern perspective through Caldwell's You Have Seen Their Faces, and Tobacco Road and Son 'Allah Ibrahim's Zaat. You Have Seen Their Faces (1937) is a photographic well documented book, that discusses the problems of the poor Whites. His aim is to prove that what is written in his novels actually exists and it is not an exaggeration, as was claimed by critics. In addition, he handles the deep antagonism of the poor whites towards the blacks as a main part of their culture. In Tobacco Road (1932) most of the characters suffer from physical and economic degradation. They are incapable of love, caring or even morality. Social injustice is clearly highlighted through the incidents of Zaat (1992). Some of the chapters of this novel are extracts from the newspaper and others are fictional. He reflects everyday life of the Egyptian middle class, by comparing what happens to Zaat, to what occurs in the upper classes. He handles the dependency on the foreign aids and the political corruption.
