This article examines the treatment of Jewish Egyptian experience in The Last Jews of Alexandria (2008), a novel written by Moatz Fteha, a contemporary Egyptian author. Fteha is one of the few Egyptian writers who shamelessly throws off the chains of the past in an effort to present his own version of the Jewish experience in Egypt, hence making a notable contribution to an understanding of that experience. The novel contributes to our understanding of the Jewish Egyptian experience from 1941 to 1954. It focuses on the uniqueness of that experience that describes the unity of people and place. The Haddad family members, like the ancient trees on the street they live on, are deeply rooted in the soil of the Egyptian land where people are not judged by their skin color or by the religion they embrace. Only after the Arab-Israeli conflict did the boughs of this Jewish tree start to crack, and the whole Egyptian experience start to deteriorate.
