- Summary:
- In 1994, the popular playwright and humorist Ali Salem filled up his old soviet built car, loaded the trunk with copies of his books, and drove from Cairo to Israel. In three intense weeks, he traveled the length and breadth of the country. On the return, he wrote a provocative book, full of wry humor and keen insight, which became a best seller in Egypt.
