"How could a good Muslim boy like you be born into a Jewish family!" For Galal, forced to leave Egypt in the 1960s Jewish exodus with his family, the Diaspora has none of the beauty of a rich tapestry of history; it's a day-to-day struggle to fit into his new life in Paris, reconcile the conflicting demands of family and friends, and come to terms with who he is. Deeply personal, this unusual and uplifting coming-of-age novel takes us into the heart of an ordinary young man in the grip of an unforgiving historical moment.
