Crossing Cairo: A Jewish Woman’s Encounter with Egypt by Rabbi Ruth H. Sohn
In Crossing Cairo, Rabbi Ruth Sohn has written an exceptional family portrait of the experience of living in Egypt with her husband and children. Advised not to share the fact that they are Jewish, they discover what it means to hide and then increasingly share their identity. Would it be possible to cross the boundaries of language, culture and religion to form real friendships and find a home among Egyptians?
Ron Duncan Hart and Gaon Books have
graciously offered to donate 10 copies of "Crossing Cairo". info@hamakomtheplace.org for more information.
