Out of Egypt: A Memoir | André Aciman
post image

‪I told Dad I loved the excerpt in Immigrant Stories from Andre Aciman and so he ran out to buy me a copy of Out of Egypt. Both are fabulous, but now I‘m just halfway through each rather than being done with either.‬
Both provide an intimate look at immigration, homesickness, and the trials and tribulations of navigating family history and culture.
