Academic Journal Raves EH "Expertly Written and Edited"
The Spring 2007 issue of the Journal of Middle East Women's Studies hails Expat Harem as "a supremely feminine book". Reviewer Ann Evans Larimore (Professor Emerita of geography and women's studies at University of Michigan) writes, "It can be dipped into at any point, but there is a rhythm and progression to the presentation of these episodes, so that reading them in sequence is not only aesthetically pleasing but instructive."
Larimore goes on to note, “They have succeeded amazingly well in realizing their conceptualization of this anthology... Written with a sharp eye for telling small details, these stories can provide many ethnographic insights... It’s a great (and instructive) read! Don’t miss it.”
JMEWS is the official publication of the Association of Middle East Women's Studies--a cutting edge international and multidisciplinary organization.
