Middle Eastern Reads - Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Islamic Women

0 comments


Nine Parts of Desire is one of my favorite books ever. It's about the lives of women in the Middle East and written by an extraordinary writer, Geraldine Brooks. This is a must read if you have any plans to visit any country in the Middle East or if you entertain any curiosity about the hidden lifestyles of women in these often misunderstood, far away parts of the world. Powerful and revealing.

Read it and let me know what you think. Also, here's the link to Amazon in case you want more information about the author and/or the book. Amazon.com: Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Islamic Women (9780385475778): Geraldine Brooks: Books
