About this product
Product Information
“Poignant . . . deeply personal . . . an indelible history of the largely forgotten Jews of Egypt . . . -Miami Herald In vivid and graceful prose, Lucette Lagnado re-creates the majesty and cosmopolitan glamour of Cairo in the years before Gamal Abdel Nasser's rise to power. With Nasser's nationalization of Egyptian industry, her father, Leon, a boulevardier who conducted business in his white sharkskin suit, loses everything, and departs with the family for any land that will take them. The poverty and hardships they encounter in their flight from Cairo to Paris to New York are strikingly juxtaposed against the beauty and comforts of the lives they left behind. An inversion of the American dream set against the stunning portraits of three world cities, Lucette Lagnado's memoir offers a grand and sweeping story of faith, tradition, tragedy, and triumph.

When I contacted the seller I was immediately offered a re-fund, but wanted the book and decided to wait a bit longer. I don't know how the seller managed it but the book I thought was lost in delivery has arrived! I would describe my experience with this seller as positive despite the delivery hiccup. Recommend.
