Hi-
I'd recommend the following books by Ms. Lucette Lagnado. She is an Egyptian Jew and has written very movingly about her parents lives in Egypt and the U.S. The Man in the White Sharkskin Suit: My Family's Exodus from Old Cairo to the New World. The Arrogant Years: One Girl's Search for Her Lost Youth, from Cairo to Brooklyn Shabbat Shalom, Donald Altschiller ________________________________ From: Hasafran <[email protected]> on behalf of Marion Stein via Hasafran <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 22, 2019 11:15 AM To: Hasafran Subject: [ha-Safran] Learning about sefardic migrations and how the different communities interact and self identify Hi, We have a member of our community who is from Egypt and another from Iraq. We have been presenting periodically, discussions on the topics above through personal stories. We'd like to deepen and expand these conversations with reference to writers who may have had firsthand knowledge of their experiences with migration and expulsion. Can anyone recommend some fine writers whose works we should be reading? Marion Stein
