Suzanne Taha-Hussein, Taha Hussein's wife, wrote a volume of emotional reminiscences of her life with Taha, entitled "Avec Toi".
After having read several books of Taha Hussein, I would like to read Suzanne's one to have her impressions.
But I don't find it. Do you know where I could find it in French or in Arabic (I think it was translated into Arabic and published as Ma'ak)? |

In an introduction of Taha Hussein's book, I read some passages of Suzanne's one and it seems really interesting, to have the point of view of "the sweet voice".
It was published in Arabic in 1979 (Ma'arif).
When I am in Cairo, I would like to visit the Taha Hussein Museum. Maybe they can help me... |

Now that's a new clue...Dar El Ma'aref publishing house would be the proper place to ask...I will find a way to contact them or even visit them and ask in person...There is one bookshop downtown..I am usually downtown on thursdays, so I will pass by and give it a try...
Their head office is along the Corniche, north past The Hilton Hotel... |
