The City Always Wins by Omar Robert Hamilton

4.0

I loved this. this was the perfect way to learn about a part of history and area of the world that I previously knew little about. the novel is set during the 2011 revolution in egypt. it's a sad, honest portrayal of that time. living in such a safe country it's always shocking to hear about how in the 21st century there are people and places who are through so much hardship. plenty of beautifully written passages in this. got a lot out of it from the first page to the very end.
