CLOPTRE-LES-BAINS
Sami Klada
Les ditions Scaramouche are proud to
present Cloptre-les-Bains, a collection
of short stories set in 1950s Alexandria.
The author, Sami Klada, transports us
back to his native Egypt at a time when a
vibrant francophone community thrived in
both Alexandria and Cairo.
A consummate master of style and
imagery, Klada paints for us in deft and
brilliant brushstrokes a number of critical
moments in the adolescent life of Karim,
his complex and engaging protagonist.
Klada fait bien vivre les premiers
conflits de Karim, son idalisme
orgueilleux et ses premires peines
damour. Il montre aussi travers ce
personnage combien est insolite la
puissante nostalgie qui nous ramne
jamais aux blessures et aux joies de
lenfance.
Gabrielle Pascal, Livres dici et dailleurs,
dans Cit Libre, Vol.XXIII, No 2.

editions of Cloptre-les-bains. The first contains
four unedited, unabridged and unexpurgated
