Theilhaber A, Reda M. On the Egyptian Revolution: E-Mail Discussions by Two Former Cairo Flatmates. <em>The critical stage : young voices on crucial topics </em>. 2016;6(1).
Only a few weeks after the outbreak of the Egyptian Revolution in January 2011, Amir Heinitz, a German historian and political scientist with an Israeli background, and Marian Reda, an Egyptian doctor, became flatmates in Cairo, not far from Tahrir Square. Ever since Heinitz left Egypt in the summer of 2011, his and Reda’s friendship has continued via e-mail. Heinitz and Reda decided to make excerpts of their e-mail correspondence available as a contribution to The Critical Stage. These e-mails cover the time span from 2011 to 2013 and are a personal, at times very emotional account of the impact the revolution has had on both of the authors’ lives. At the same time, the protagonists are dealing with everyday issues and – like many of their generation – are looking for meaningful perspectives in their lives.
