I really enjoyed this book. I like books set in interesting locations and interesting times and this met both of those, woven into the past/present, young/old stories of iris and her granddaughter.
I enjoyed it right until the end, which somehow felt hurried, like the number of words required had been reached and it had to be concluded in a hurry now.
I was left a little dissatisfied and unfulfilled. A lot of books have an epilogue, which gives just a glimpse into how the characters came out of it and a little 'what happened next' round up , I felt that something like that would have given this tale a proper ending and an extra star on the rating from me at least.

Interesting story, but felt rushed at the end

This is second time I have read this book and found it just as brilliant as the first time m made even better this time with the voice of rula lenski

Beautiful moving story

Such a beautiful tale - you could almost feel the heat of Cairo and hear the sounds of the every day life there.
The relationship between Iris and Ruby is one every reader ( listener ) will surely enjoy and even though I read this years ago I adored the audio version just as much!

Wonderful story

It is simply impossible not to fall in love with these characters, despite their faults, and Cairo during the early 1940s.

Delightful

This book is well read even if the pronunciation of some Egyptian word are cringe. It is an interesting heart warming story. For me though, the younger main character is just embarrassing, swearing unnecessarily, overly sexual, disrespectful of the culture, self obsessed. I just stopped caring about the story and with 5 hrs to go I’ve given up. I feel I have better things to do with my life than this

Didn’t finish it
