Sipping From the Nile: My Exodus from Egypt by Jean Naggar

I find it fascinating! Looking at life in Egypt from a different angle and a different time. Learning the history of Smouha, which I've always known as a beautiful place but never as an actual family's name - the family that paid for, designed, and built the place!
I went to the English School myself   :)  My cousin went to the Gezira Prep School.  The Gezira Club is a place I love.
It's nicely unsettling to see familiar things through distant eyes.

Then there's the world I never knew! so much of it.
It's a great book.
