Description
Praise for Cairo Stories:
"A beautiful portrait of life in Egypt. I strongly recommend it."--Alaa al Aswany, author of The Yacoubian Building
Claire and Gabrielle Sahli are sisters growing up in 1920s Cairo. Of Syrian descent, they occupy a precarious position in Egypt's increasingly nationalist wealthy classes. While others like them leave, the Sahlis cling on to their homes and livelihoods as Cairo is rocked by violent anti-British demonstrations and government crackdowns.
Anne-Marie Drosso is of Syrian/Italian descent and was born in Cairo in 1951. This is her first full-length novel. She lives in Monterey, California.
