Lagnado's father, Leon, used to conduct business in his signature white sharkskin suit in Cairo in the years between World War II and Nasser's rise to power. But with the fall of King Farouk, Leon and his family, like other… Egyptian Jews, lost everything and had to flee. With all of their belongings packed into 26 suitcases, the family departed for any land that would take them. 2007.
