How lucky of you to know the writer!, especially one so lauded.

Thanks for the tip about Ali. Hadn't known about that book. This was my first by Eig. I just borrowed it and am excited to read it. Ali was another one who is larger than life, and I would love to know more about him.

Yes! Will be reading more of his books. So pleased to have discovered him.

Wonderful choice Hannah! I just got this one from the American Library at the Embassy & I'm hoping to get into it soon. I was waiting for it for the longest time ever! Glad you found this one enriching in spite of the fatigue & rewarded it 4 stars. Hope your next biography is a winner with a full 5 on 5 experience! Happy Reading to you always! Have a lovely weekend! Mine is all 'booked'! :)

Hi Fiza. Very good book, but dense. I was running out of time to return it to the library. So I rushed it. Learned a lot, but would have preferred to take my time with it. Hope you enjoy it!
