More about the book
The memoir chronicles Julie Hill's childhood in early 20th-century Alexandria, where her Greek family thrived amidst a blend of cultures as refugees from the Ottoman Empire. She vividly describes the rich traditions of her community, the vibrant social life, and the impact of historical events like the German occupation and the 1952 revolution. As she navigates her education and the upheaval that followed, Hill reflects on the nostalgia of her youth and the profound changes in Alexandria upon her return, highlighting the themes of identity and belonging.
