Sandpiper

Más información sobre el libro

From the Man Booker Nominee author of The Map of Love. Sandpiper is a collection of stories which provide insight into Egyptian and Western life and the links between them, looking at relationships within and across continents. People from many places - England, Alexandria, Istanbul - pass through defining crises in their relations with others. Most of them are women, and most find themselves in countries other than their own, where language, culture and prescribed emotions such as 'love' create confusion. New understandings are registered in intensely recalled moments and sensations.
