Alexandria Quartet. Justine. Balthazar. Darrell L.

Four parts of the novel-tetraology "Alexandria Quartet" not in vain wear the names of their main characters. The reader can look at the same events - the life of Egyptian Alexandria before and during the Second World War - through the eyes of completely different people.

The first book - Justin - the story of a complex and eccentric novel between the young British writer Darli and the European wife of the Egyptian millionaire, Juustin, which happened in Alexandria of the 1930s.

The second-“Balthazar” is at the same time a kind of “look from a different angle” on the relationship of Darli and Justein and the fascinating chronicle of the anti-British conspiracy of the Egyptian aristocracy. < /p>
