The Map of Love by Ahdaf Soueif

4.0

found on a friend's "to-read" shelf - looks good, Booker Prize finalist

I just finished this. It was really good! It's the story of one large family in two time periods in Egypt. It's a moving love story. My only "complaint" was that some of the Egyptian politics of both time periods got a bit long for my taste. It was quite important to the story, and well done, just a bit much in a few places for me.
