Framed as a haunting series of letters to an absent editor at Al-Ahram Newspaper's Friday Mail, this extraordinary poetry collection refracts the lives of Cairo's demimonde through a surreal, shimmering lens. From flooded basements to rooftop vigils, from broken radios to whispered revolutions, each plea is a cracked mirror reflecting a city unraveling and remaking itself in silence. In the void where replies should be, CAIRO: the undelivered letters dares to imagine that even unread voices echo-tender, urgent, and impossible to ignore.
