{"product_id":"cairo-evalyn-anderson-9780595429998","title":"Cairo: June, 1967: A Dangerous Place For An American","description":"An outsider, who did not speak the language, at first, I saw only the surface of life in Cairo. I was thrilled to be in the \"land of the Pharaohs,\" which had fascinated me since I was a teen-ager. Gradually, the dark side of Egyptian life began to reveal itself. Spied upon by neighbors, my students, my servant and possibly others, as well as the secret police, I began to watch my words, as I taught my students, in a way I had never done before. Still, I felt that I was safe because I had nothing to hide. Or so I thought. One day, a journalist wrote that teachers were used as CIA agents in countries where the United States had no other representatives. As the Cairo mobs shouted anti-American slogans, I realized just how vulnerable I was. Later, when war rumors began to spread, my greatest fear was being trapped inside Egypt, with my young son, in the middle of a war. My thoughts and energy were focused on the delicate balance between fleeing too soon, or unnecessarily, and being considered a \"hysterical woman\" by my professional colleagues, or waiting too long before leaving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Evalyn Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0595429998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780595429998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Evalyn Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443567505663,"sku":"9780595429998","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7bcd9221-1288-4227-9b2a-ad7f51d5f888.jpg?v=1777206340","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cairo-evalyn-anderson-9780595429998","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
