About this book

Nostalgia, imagined possibilities and the lives that might have been occupy these essays by Andre Aciman. His introduction returns to leaving Egypt and anticipating homesickness before departure, then considers the gap between an imagined France and the country he encountered. Personal memory becomes a way to examine longing for places shaped partly by expectation.

Andre Aciman

Alexandria is the city André Aciman's family had to leave. Born there on 2 January 1951 into a Sephardic Jewish household that spoke French at home alongside Italian, Ladino, Greek and Arabic, he departed with his family in 1965, lived in Rome, and reached New York in 1968. Out of Egypt (1995), his memoir of that vanished world, won a Whiting Award.
