What I know about you / Éric Chacour ; translated by Pablo Strauss.

Chacour, Éric, 1983- (author.). Strauss, Pablo, (translator.).

Summary:

"In a tight-knit Levantine Christian family in 1960s Cairo, Tarek's entire life is written in advance. He'll be a doctor like his father, marry, and have children. Under the watchful eye of the family's strong women, he starts to do just that -- until a patient's son, Ali, enters his life and turns it upside down. The two men's unsayable relationship sparks a series of events as dramatic as the Six-Day War and assassination of President Anwar Sadat playing out in the background."-- From publisher's description.
