Scheherazade's Legacy

the long version

"In a time when it seems that the gap of understanding between the West and the Middle East continues to widen, Scheherazade's Legacy builds a bridge between the two cultures. Collected here are the voices of those who define the genre of Arab Anglophone writing - that literature that describes the cultural experiences of those with Arab identities living, and often writing, in the West." "This collection is one of the first books to assemble the voices of women writers of Arab descent on the subject of writing itself."--BOOK JACKET.
