Recenzii
This
novel
will
definitely
interest
teenage
readers
who
are
eager
to
know
more

the
wider

particularly
if
their
curiosity
about
Egypt
has
been
piqued
by
recent
events
Anna Perera's book is written for teenagers, but like her previous work, the bestsellingGuantánamo Boy, it will charm older readers too. Cairo pulses from its pages, dirty, smelly but intoxicating; 'the magic's everywhere.' The tale sparkles like the glass Aaron hoards, light and delicate and full of dreams
This novel comes highly recommended for thoughtful older readers. It might even be life-changing for some. I would expect it on awards shortlists in the future
A powerful rendering of human struggle, resilience, and hope
