1. 1. What I Know About You

   

   In "What I Know About You," Éric Chacour weaves a poignant narrative set against the backdrop of late-20th-century Cairo. The story follows Tarek, a young man from a close-knit Levantine Christian family, whose life seems predetermined: become a doctor, marry, and raise a family. However, his world is upended when he meets Ali, the son of a patient, leading to a profound and forbidden connection. As their relationship unfolds, it coincides with significant historical events, including the Six-Day War and the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. Years later, Tarek is a doctor in Montreal, trying to escape his past. Yet, someone is chronicling his life, unraveling memories he wishes to leave behind. The narrative spans from the bustling streets of Cairo to the cold winters of Montreal, exploring themes of love, identity, and the enduring impact of family and tradition.
