The Novel:  After Cairo

After Cairo is my first novel. The book is a sequel to the movie, Cairo Time.

I wrote the novel because I believe that art changes lives. Music, sculpture, painting, novels and films — they have the power to move us and shape us. In my case, a film ushered me into the world of fiction writing. For someone who started out as an historian, that was a change in direction.
