poor oppressed women in the US,
By the author (saudi arabia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shadowing Thunder: Beneath the Abaya in Saudi Arabia (Paperback)
this is NOT a novel about poor oppressed women in Saudi Arabia, but the very antithesis.
Funny how we get these ideas.

This review is from: Shadowing Thunder: Beneath the Abaya in Saudi Arabia (Paperback)
The author shows little understanding of Saudi women and culture, relying on Orientalist stereotypes for his story. This book is based solely on the author's imagination - after all, as a man it would have been impossible for him to gain access to women's social circles. We don't need yet another fantasy about the plight of 'poor, oppressed, invisible' Saudi women.

Worlds/words of shadow, worlds/words of light,
This review is from: Shadowing Thunder: Beneath the Abaya in Saudi Arabia (Paperback)
A fresh voice full of hypnotic charm: you are almost instantly pulled into this strange-yet-somehow-familiar world that shimmers both on the page and in your mind. The book's motion, its play of words and strange deeds, bears digging into, focused exploration. The rewards are well worth the price of admission.
