Cairo from Edge to Edge

Cairo from Edge to Edge

Editorial Reviews Book Description The Mother of the World as seen through the lens of French photographer Jean Pierre Ribire and the pen of Egyptian writer Sonallah Ibrahim: The result is a rich and highly original portrait of a city. Ribire's seventy powerful photographs capture fugitive moments in urban life and architecture, in which historic grandeur meets modernity in a race with time. Meanwhile, Sonallah Ibrahim's incisive exploration of Cairo's past and his own past reveals a man living on the edge of a city living on the edge of itself. About the Author Sonallah Ibrahim has written a number of novels and short stories, a collection of which has been translated into English and published as The Smell of It. Jean Pierre Ribire has exhibited in France, England, Egypt, and Sudan. Sudan: The Passing of Time was his first book of photographs.
