À propos de cet audio
“[Lagnado writes] in crystalline yet melodious prose.” (New York Times)
Lucette Lagnado’s acclaimed, award-winning The Man in the White Sharkskin Suit, “[a] crushing, brilliant book” (New York Times Book Review), told the powerfully moving story of her Jewish family’s exile from Egypt. In her extraordinary follow-up memoir, The Arrogant Years, Lagnado revisits her first years in America, and describes a difficult coming-of-age tragically interrupted by a bout with cancer at age 16. At once a poignant mother and daughter story and a magnificent snapshot of the turbulent ’60s and ’70s, The Arrogant Years is a stunning work of memory and resilience that ranges from Cairo to Brooklyn and beyond - the unforgettable true story of a remarkable young woman’s determination to push past the boundaries of her life and make her way in the wider world.
