Cairo: Histories of a City

Cairo: Histories of a City

by NezarAlsayyad (Author)

Synopsis

Nezar AlSayyad narrates the many Cairos that have existed through time, offering a panorama unmatched in temporal and geographic scope, through an in-depth examination of the city's architecture and urban form. His narration illuminates how there can be "no one history of the city, but rather multiple, contested, and often invented histories."
