An incredible view of British-dominated Egypt and the Egyptian factions themselves. Interweaves the love and cross-cultural experience. A great read! Our book group went on forever about it, discovering new things at every turn of the conversation.
This was an interesting book ,I would probably read it again
A wonderful love story together with insight on the middle east thinking so relevant today. I have read this book twice over the years.
Couldn't put this book down!
Try it, you might like it, although I started it several times and couldn't get past the first 10 pages.
An interesting clash of cultures, love story, historical novel that tells the story of three women. Two of the women are in the early 1900s and the third (the narrator) is in 1997. Well written and interesting.
