This richly colored memoir chronicles the exploits of a flamboyant
Jewish family, from its bold arrival in cosmopolitan Alexandria to
its defeated exodus three generations later. In elegant and witty
prose, Andre Aciman introduces us to the marvelous eccentrics who
shaped his life--Uncle Vili, the strutting daredevil, soldier,
salesman, and spy; the two grandmothers, the Princess and the
Saint, who gossip in six languages; Aunt Flora, the German refugee
who warns that Jews lose everything "at least twice in their
lives." And through it all, we come to know a boy who, even as he
longs for a wider world, does not want to be led, forever, out of
Egypt."
