83+Bonus: Book Quiz

from BULAQ | بولاق Hosted by Ursula Lindsey and M Lynx Qualey

All this season, we will be doing short book-quiz episodes with prizes donated by ten distinguished publishers. We give the answer to the question from Episode 82: “The Men Who Swallowed the Sun,” which features Bedouin migration from Egypt to Libya. In our last episode with guest Mona Kareem we talked about self-translation and “writing in Arabic in the US” and our next question is about a writer who did just this. Send your best guesses to [email protected]. The first listener to respond with the right answer will get a book in the mail!
