كتاب صعب لصنع اللة. الجمل القصيرة توقف القارء عن القراءة السريعة. الكثير من الشخصيات تتداخل مع بعضها. اتمنى ان يكون كتاب اللجنة احلى.

ثلاث نجمات ونصف .. كيف أصف شعوري بها !! يظنون بأن الطفل لايفهم لاينتبه لايفطن إلى صغائر الأمور .. المهم حلوة غثيثة فيها أشياء تقهر، بس مب لازم تقرونها إذا ماتبون!!

I enjoyed this book, which is really just a collection of observations and memories of a young boy in Egypt in the 1950s. There is no plot to speak of, and events the boy observes are often confusing. Your experience as a reader gains you no more understanding than the boy himself has-meaning we don't know why he and his father are living the life they are or why his mother is not there. If you like reading about descriptions of a place and relationships perceived from a child's eye-level, the writing is simple and beautiful and paints an intriguing picture.
