Women of sand and myrrh

Hanan al-Shaykh ; translated by Catherine Cobham

Little is known of what life is like for contemporary Arab women living in the Middle East. One of the few literary voices speaking out from that still closed society is Hanan al-Shaykh, whose novel The Story of Zahra was banned in most Arab countries.
