Set on the eve of the January 1977 "bread riots" against IMF austerity programs and privatization that nearly brought down President Anwar Sadat, this book catches Egypt in the mid-stream of its modern history. Since it appeared in 1984, it has been translated into a number of European languages and adapted as the successful film "Kit Kat".
