This richly coloured memoir chronicles the exploits of a flamboyant Jewish family, from its bold arrival in cosmopolitan Alexandria to its defeated exodus three generations later. In elegant and witty prose, Andre Aciman introduces us to the marvellous eccentrics who shaped his life: the strutting daredevil, soldier, salesman, and spy; the two grandmothers, the Princess and the Saint, who gossip in six languages; and Aunt Flora, the German refugee who warns that Jews lose everything "at least twice in their lives." And through it all, we come to know a boy who, even as he longs for a wider world, does not want to be led, forever, out of Egypt.

讓我想到瞭當年首都機場check in的深藍色塑料櫃颱，拿在手裏的紙票夾裏的一塌子厚厚的機票和薄薄復寫紙上打印的紅色信息
评分非常非常美，從一個孩子的角度對革命前的埃及作瞭很私人又很敏感的描述，這傢人太有趣啦
评分André寫得好極瞭，文筆優美，最重要的是對於亞曆山大港—那片土地，消失的土地，不屬於「他們」的土地—上一件件曆史和故事的描述從而躍然紙上的深厚感情。
评分Aciman對細節及心理的文字描述太贊啦！還有超多不經意間讓人忍俊不禁的錶述！讀著讀著都感嘆，英文也好美！
