Ahdaf Soueif is an amazing writer... she writes prose that reads like poetry and her compassion for her characters, their flaws and their strengths, is life-affirming. She's unafraid to describe different cultures and the struggles people have in bridging their differences, but she does this with an open heart for both cultures. She's great!

The novel focuses too much on politics, that the love story gets lost. As someone new to Arabic phrases and Middle Eastern history, this book was a bit difficult for me to follow.
