Between the death of Abdel Nasser and the assassination of Sadat, Egypt and the world witnessed tremendous transformations: politics were upended, the economy transformed, and technology advanced, transforming the life of the Egyptian family. This engaging book departs from dry academic history and takes the reader into the shoes of a family that was almost a model for many Egyptian families at the time. In a lively and engaging narrative, our distinguished cultural critic Mahmoud Abdel Shakoor reminds us of these rich years: we experience with him his childhood and adolescence between Cairo and Upper Egypt, and see through his eyes how Egyptian families lived, what education was like in schools, what people read in the 1970s, and what they watched on television, in cinema, and in the theater. This book cleverly connects the private and the public, telling us the story of an entire generation and an exciting era brimming with vitality and creativity.
