We can conclude from the passage that Mahfouz's writing ....... .

In 1988, much was made of the fact that Naguib
Mahfouz was the first Arab Nobel Prize winner.
Mahfouz's award, made at the height of Arab-Israeli
peace maneuverings, was a fine example of a
literature prize suddenly taking on an unexpected
political significance. This process was not without
its ironies though. Previously, Mahfouz was severely
criticised by the Arab establishment, suspicious of
his Western trends and moral teachings in his
writing. Then suddenly he found himself being put
on postage stamps, and having everything he said
publicised and taken seriously. Even his presence
at a reading given by some Syrian poets at about
this time was quickly marked down as a sign of athaw
in Egyptian-Syrian relations.
