==''Out of Egypt''==
Aciman's 1995 memoir, ''Out of Egypt'', was reviewed widely.〔〔 In ''The New York Times'', Michiko Kakutani described the volume as a "remarkable memoir...that leaves the reader with a mesmerizing portrait of a now vanished world."〔 She compared his work with that of Lawrence Durrell and also wrote: "There are some wonderfully vivid scenes here, as strange and marvelous as something in Garcia Marquez, as comical and surprising as something in Chekhov."〔
