I honestly don't know any Egyptian literature beside some religious texts. Do they actually have any fiction?

You sound like an asshole trying to polarize these concepts, and you sound like an asshole responding to me. I hope your thread dies after this post

I responded ''me too'' to ensure you that i wasn't trying to force any polarization, but merely looking for arguments in favour of a clear preference, since i am interested in the qualitative comparison.
>and you sound like an asshole responding to me.
That wasn't my intention.

Yes. There's a host of stories from the classical period (Middle Kingdom) - Sinuhe being the most known.
