“Given the historic revolution in Egypt this spring, Alaa Al Aswany’s novel, The Yacoubian Building, couldn’t be more relevant. This compelling story illustrates how impossible it is to lift yourself up in a society riddled with corruption. It also shows how moments of grace can be found in the strangest places. (You can also download this title from Annie Bloom’s in its Google eBook edition. You can then read this digital book on your desktop, laptop, iPhone, Android, Nook, or other non-Kindle e-reader. And our price is the same as anywhere else!)”—Pat, Annie Bloom’s, Portland
