Diary of a Jewish Muslim

Offers an intimate view of the easy coexistence of Muslims, Jews, and Christians in an old neighborhood of Cairo, spanning the 1930s to the 1940s. It accompanies Galal, a young boy with a Jewish mother and a Muslim father, during his childhood and early adolescence in the popular quarter of Daher. Galal, his mother, and grandfather, are part of a middle-class social fabric in old Cairo, a fabric of manners and morals, values and traditions which transcends religion, but is about to be torn apart by a bigger world of politics that will also put Galal's very identity to the test.
