Harem Years: The Memoirs of an Egyptian Feminist, 1879-1924, Paperback - Huda Shaarawi

Detalii:

Contributor(s):Author: Huda ShaarawiEditor: Margot BadranIn this firsthand account of the private world of a harem in colonial Cairo, Shaarawi recalls her childhood and early adult life in the seclusion of an upper-class Egyptian household, including her marriage at age thirteen. Her subsequent separation from her husband gave her time for an extended formal education, as well as an unexpected taste of independence. Shaarawis feminist activism grew, along with her involvement in Egypts nationalist struggle, culminating in 1923 when she publicly removed her veil in a Cairo railroad station, a daring act of defiance. Review citationsPublishers Weekly - 04/17/1987
