The Year of Numbers

Working with an NGO gathering personal war-horror stories from Cairos besieged and undocumented refugee communities, Genevieve, a young Canadian idealist discovers uncertainties too dangerous to share, especially between lovers. Evocative passages describe Cairos people, fashions, architecture, foods and colours. It is a city of possibilities as well as uncertainties. Readers will feel the dust between sandaled toes in the dry heat of day and shiver at the cold tiles beneath naked feet crossing the floor at night. The Year of Numbers is a feast for the senses and creates a moving, exotic experience for readers.
