I have read other books by this writer and have been very impressed. It gives those of us here in the states an inside look into what Iraqis, especially women in the Middle East have to go through. I bought it because I could not find it at the local library, so I decided to buy it, read it, then donate it to the library so others could read this story as well. It tells of a woman that was falsly imprisoned in Iraq under the Baath party regime and her trials. This woman had even had contact with Sadaam Hussein, yet still fell prey to the horrors of false arrest. It tells of not only her torture, but the torture of the "shadow women" in cell 52. Definitely heart rending.
Wow! Another great book by Jean Sasson!! I am definately hooked. After reading her Princess trilogy, I thought this book would be much of the same. But I was wrong! It was better. Not only did it bring you into this woman's life but her state of mind during different stages of her life. A great book. A must read for womans studies, historical reference and current affairs all wrapped into one. I am glad I read it! Loved it!
Interesting from start to finish. Certainly eye-opening information.
