Apricots on the Nile by Colette Roussant

Apricots on the Nile by Colette Roussant was a memoir about life in Egypt during World War II as a French child. This book was very short and mostly personal, so I'll keep this blog short. I really liked the style of writing - it was nostalgic and romantic of Egyptian life. Plus, it came with recipes that I'm excited to try to recreate. 

I found this book while searching for books about countries in Africa, and I'm glad I did.
