Quarter of the Rice by Shaimaa Ghoneim... Egypt declared forty days of mourning for the death of Saad Zaghloul. On the other side of the state's preoccupation with memorial ceremonies, the author takes us on a journey to the Quarter of the Rice in the Bulaq district, on the fringes of Cairo and below the poverty line, where more than two thousand people live. We enter with her heroes, her storybook of the depths of Cairene society. An inner facet of the city ruled by bullies and dominated by superstitions. We glimpse the appearance of the Cairo street, secretly enter the heart of the popular cafes and women's baths, hear the news being relayed, and watch the processions of the obstructions. The novel Quarter of the Rice offers a new perspective on Cairo's past, rich in magical details, immersing us in a time and place where the marginalized are on the other side of the pashas' society. The pages will flow between your hands, but you will never leave the world of this work.
