I have read this book a couple of times.
A story about the history of Egypt, a family saga and a couple of love stories over several decades.
This book describes British Colonialism, Egyptian nationalism and the difference between the two people both a hundred years ago and today.
Read my original review here.
I do love reading books set in Egypt. This sounds like a really good one.
ReplyDeleteI like books about Egypt, too. This is a more modern take and totally interesting. Have you read anything by Naguib Mahfouz. If not, he is one of the best.
DeleteI think I read this some years ago, and loved it.
ReplyDeleteI have read more books by the author afterwards, Lisbeth. I think that shows how much I liked it.
