Hemmingway 5.0 out of 5 stars You have to read this book! Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2005
I would highly recommend this book for all those who wish to have real insight into the Middle East as seen through the eyes of a woman. As a Middle Eastern-American woman myself, I can testify to the authenticity of the material in this book. Although it is fictional, it is very realistic. It is a must read not only because it will capture you and force you to keep reading it till u know the ending, but because it gives you a glimpse in to the life that women, like the main charatcer, experience on a daily basis. I believe this book offers not only insight, but hope to such women, who might otherwise see themselves as helpless victims of the very patriarchal society they live in. This book will give all of us, living in the West a new understanding of the freedoms we take for granted. I would recommend this book to all who feel they are stuck in walk of life that they feel unable to release themselves from. The message in this book offers real hope to all who read it. It has quickly become a favorite of mine and I hope it will become one of yours.
MKing 5.0 out of 5 stars Understanding the muslim culture Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2007
I read this book on the recommendation of a close friend. After reading this book, I feel a sense of understanding about the women. Although I know this book is somewhat fictional, I am drawn to the “Hope and Light” the women find. It is well written and easy to relate for many women.
Ann E. Gray 5.0 out of 5 stars Very Enlightening & Inspiring Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2008
Lust Under the Veil The author has done a beautiful job of taking the reader into a Middle Eastern home and showing what life is really like, not only for women but also for men. Emira draws you in from the very beginning, and I had difficulty putting the book down. There is much to love about this book, and I would encourage people to read it. It is definitely enlightening and inspiring.
Edlyne L. Dickson 5.0 out of 5 stars Living His Faith Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2008
This book tells how one man, sharing his faith in a quiet way, has an impact on those around him, even though he could be persecuted for it. It also gives a picture of life for women in a Muslim society. A compelling story of faith, witness, and romance.
