Nine months after returning from school in England, you rode home at dusk from work in your father's Alexandria business. Languages help me hear this city, and boxing may help if one of its quarrels refuses words. You step into this one-chapter preview with Sidi Ben Ouafy at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Outside, Sidi's returning party approached to carry you into the next chapter. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
