Media Reviews
Vivid, passionate and shedding, as true love does, a brilliant, revealing light on the world beyond itself. -- The Sunday Telegraph (London) Epic--. Soueif is at her most eloquent on the subject of her homeland, her prose rich with historical detail and debate. Ultimately, Egypt emerges as the true heroine of this novel. -- The Independent (London) Ahdaf Soueif has a talent for blending the personal and political and getting under the skin of each one of her characters. -- Independent on Sunday (London) A magnificent work, reminiscent of Marquez and Allende in its breadth and confidence. -- The Guardian A bold and vibrant novel--. This is political fiction that is also unashamedly romantic--. A triumphant achievement. --Penelope Lively, Literary Review
