"Quinze Jours en Égypte" by Fernand Neuray is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. The book offers a firsthand account of the author's journey through Egypt, detailing his observations and experiences as he explores the ancient splendor and contemporary developments of the region. Neuray's narrative intertwines the excitement of his voyage with reflections on the culture and society of Egypt during his time. The beginning of the travelogue sets the stage for Neuray’s exploration, as he recounts the invitation extended to journalists to witness the rise of a new city, Héliopolis, emerging from the desert near Cairo. The author describes his journey aboard the "Héliopolis", a new steamer poised to make the route between Europe and Egypt more accessible. Upon arrival in Alexandria, Neuray delves into the vibrant scenes of daily life in the Egyptian Delta, offering rich descriptions of the landscapes and the local populace. His narrative reveals his admiration for the land, the people, and the ancient history that reverberates throughout, establishing a backdrop for the insights and impressions he gathers over the course of his fifteen-day stay in Egypt.
