Overview
More Convincingly Than Any Other Woman Writing in Arabic Today, Alifa Rifaat, an Egyptian, Lifts the Veil on What It Means to Be a Woman Living Within a Traditional Muslim Society. Her Writing Articulates a Subtle Revolt Against, and a Sympathetic Insight Into, the Place of Women in the Essentially Male-Dominated Islamic Environment.
Change, Development, and Understanding Are Called for but the Invocation is Couched in Specifically Arab Terms; Her Inspiration Lies Not in the Women's Movement of the West but Remains Within a Strictly Religious, Even Orthodox Qur'anic Framework.
