Description
Cairo, as described by Alaa Al Aswany, is a harsh city whose inhabitants are subjected to numerous concessions and compromises.
The Yacoubian Building in downtown Cairo—a building that bears witness to Egypt’s modern history—is inhabited by heroes, both poor and rich, both good and evil, who struggle with the same predicament: frustrations, deviations, and dubious deals… Real-life heroes that only the art of fiction can expose.
