The Mistress Of Nothing

The Mistress Of Nothing

2009 • 272 pages

Since I've been to Egypt, I enjoyed how the author wove in the sights and smells of Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, The story portrayed the emotional landscape of the main characters exquisitely as well. When Sally, the maid servant of Lady Duff Gordon dares to fall in love and act on that love, she pays a price no woman should. Highly recommended.
