Rezensionen
«Indeed the women writers in this volume know how to tell their own story - the story of their gender and nation. Jamal Assadi's subtle translation provides them with a stage where they can stand firmly and portray their cause to an unlimited number of audiences.» (Eiman Kashkush, Department of Arabic, The College of Sakhnin for Teacher Education)
