I'll note that I don't know enough about Egypt to evaluate the accuracy of Doller's portrayal, but she clearly did her research and approached the subject matter thoughtfully, especially in regards to questions of religion, class, and privilege. She's not preachy and doesn't offer easy answers, but the book is ultimately hopeful, and the Serious Issues she addresses are integrated very well into the fabric of the story. It's just a lovely, thought-provoking, satisfying read.
