jeanne and i had known him for over 20 years. i did socialize with rick a bit. we were not close friends, but we were closer in age and we had grown up as young officers together in the organization. even at the christmas parties, which were very nice affairs in the olden days, i never saw rick drunk ever. you read all this stuff. he was a binge drinker, particularly after he had married rosario. this was his second marriage. whenever she was out of the country, or out of town, he would get drunk. i think it was this sort of, i owe myself one. and i never met rosario. but she apparently was so difficult that her lawyers couldn't stand her. even the poor bureau guys listening to the phone.

so i felt i had to use myself as a guide. but at the same time, i didn't want -- i wanted give the reader something-- what i had, i had a luxurious experience, i moved abroad, i had won this fellowship and got to read and travel abroad. not many people got to do that. in the process of reading the book, read more and more and more of the history of the country. and i wanted to share that with the reader. i did remember these kind of powerful moments and they're just moments. i mean, it doesn't even have to be like a long scene or many hours, maybe just a moment when something hits you, like in cairo, this place has been broken by something and what is that thing? and i actually am related to that in some way because america's relationship with egypt was really a damaging one. and that sudden feeling of responsibility is one that-- or connection, even, just connection, as i saw, it doesn't have to be guilt, it's just connection, it's something that you can only experience when you're actually there and you're seeing it yourself
