a wonderful treat on the life in Cairo in the early 19th century, a very detailed description of the social status of people and the submissive world of housewifes, the patriarchial powers wielding men, the luxurious lifestyle of elite, a brief on the struggle for independence.....
must read for people who want to understand cultures and social norms of Egyptians on early 1900s.
