Review:
"El-Saadawi writes beautifully and in abundant and evocative physical detail of an Egypt that remains closely tied to the land and to a way of life that in many respects has not changed for centuries." --"Publishers Weekly" "More than any other woman, El-Saadawi has come to embody the trials of Arab feminism." --"San Francisco Chronicle" "El-Saadawi is a straight shooter and one of the most controversial writers of the latter half of this century." --"Library Journal"
About the Author:
Nawal El-Saadawi is an internationally-renowned Egyptian writer and feminist. After studying psychiatry in Cairo, she practised medicine both in Egyptian cities and in the countryside. She became director of health education in Egypt, but her writing made her increasingly the focus of controversy. Her book Woman and Sex, published in 1972, dealt openly with subjects considered taboo. Several of her novels have been translated into English. Two Women in One, Memoirs of a Woman Doctor and Love in the Kingdom of Oil are also published by Saqi Books.
