Durrell's study of love and political intrigue in Egypt before and during the Second World War appeared as four individual novels, 1957-60. Reviews of the series were both "praising or attacking Durrell's luxuriant prose, his highly romantic recreation of Alexandria, and his self-proclaimed use of Einstein." (ODNB).
