Thinking about the first book event I ever did, which was in Vancouver, and someone asked “what’s your favourite era of country” and I heard “what’s your favourite Arab country”

@elamin88 I would have heard "area of the country." I hope you weren't too traumatized by the mondegreen!
@elamin88 Among the most entertaining book-event moments I've witnessed in person. The way you rolled with it at first, the politely confused parley that ensued, the climactic light-bulb burst of mutual comprehension... A true classic of the genre.
@elamin88 Heard that happen and you handled it like a pro❣️❣️❣️
@elamin88 Strong Arab discourse lately.
