"Wikan does provide insights into the real position of these secluded and segregated women. . . . All this is interesting and valuable."--Ahdaf Soueif, "Times Literary Supplement"
"The book is detailed, insightful, and . . . engrossing. Anyone interested in the day-to-day triumphs and sorrows of women who live 'behind the veil' will want to read this account."--"Arab Book World"
"Wikan, a fine ethnographer, has an eye for everything that is distinctive about the culture and . . . builds up a wholly convincing picture. Above all, there is a sustained attempt to penetrate the inner lives of these strangely serene people."--Frank H. Stewart, "Wilson Quarterly"
"This book will certainly be of interest to all scholars concerned with sexual identity in the Islamic world."--Henry Munson, "American Anthropologist"
Unni Wikan is professor of social anthropology at the University of Oslo, Norway.
