5.0 out of 5 stars
Subtle and real,
By Jenny Knight "Aisha" (Deep South, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Coloured Lights (Paperback)
What a unique voice! Leila Aboulela is skilled at capturing real life: those tiny details that make her characters leap off the page and share their insights, struggles and memories. In her stories, there is no "east" and "west"... only people. This is a collection of short stories that I seriously didn't want to end. I also recommend "The Translator", a novel by the same author.

Great book,

This was not a "preachy" book. It was honest. It had REAL characters who are Muslim. These beautiful stories showed the human- sometimes complicated- every day experiences of its Muslim characters. Great job Ms. Aboulela!
