I started reading it as a&nbsp;<\/font><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marwarakha.com\/www.marwarakha.com\" style=\"font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 11px; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; \"><font size=\"2\">Marwa Rakha<\/font><\/a><font size=\"2\">&nbsp;fan. A fan that had never seen her tv shows, heard her on the radio or read her articles. Yet a fan nevertheless. A fan of the human being, of the persona.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">When you start out with that mindset you end up with two possible results, either unrealistically high expectations of the book which render you disappointed (see my take on A Thousand Splendid Suns) or unable to find fault with it, liking it by default.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">Reading the book felt like watching a mini-documentary. The images of your life that flash before your eyes when you think your life might be ending. I did not get caught up in the individual stories\/articles; rather was more touched by the progression. This woman whom I admire greatly, I read as she transformed into the woman she is today. I read as Marwa Rakha grew, evolved, overcame challenges, fell in and out of love, vented, learned, had her heart broken and herself broke some hearts and egos.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">The book is a collection of stories\/articles about herself and about the dating scene in Cairo. Think of it as a Cairene&#39;s version of the Sex in the City episodes; up to the inclusion of a Mr. Big (if you&#39;re a fan you&#39;ll love the book). Marwa Rakha bravely (some might argue foolishly) tackled issues such as independence, moving out, relationships, her take on Egyptian men &amp; the Egyptian society, sex, porn and horizontal relationships (I think she invented the term, but it works:).<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">My heart went out to her as she talked about her relationship with her parents which at times she symbolised in the most beautiful of ways, I love the little story about her pet butterfly.&nbsp;At other times her cynicism left me smiling and laughing despite the underlying frustration of her disappointment in those men time and time again.&nbsp;<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">Her english is pristine and highly artistic as she utilises metaphors, literary references and derivations. Whilst admitting that the Silence of the Lambs story freaked me out a bit, yet I found her musical chairs references, duck theory and rules of being a good girl entertaining.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><font size=\"2\">For 210 pages I enjoyed the ride, the possibly fictional possibly auto-biographical hurt yet recovering woman&#39;s take on love and life in Cairo. Then for 5 pages, she broke my heart.&nbsp;The book might have been light reading and I&#39;m one who never cares for book endings yet she got to me. I felt like calling up the woman who has been nothing short of&nbsp;<\/font><a href=\"http:\/\/injis.wordpress.com\/2009\/03\/24\/karma\/\" style=\"font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 11px; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; \"><font size=\"2\">sensationally supportive<\/font><\/a><font size=\"2\">&nbsp;and offering some support from this end. Only it is implied in these pages that she doesn&#39;t need it, isn&#39;t expecting it, that she is strong enough to persevere and that she will be fine. I seriously hope so.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Her english is pristine and highly artistic as she utilises metaphors, literary references and derivations.
