Very Good in Wrappers. 0743412427. 228 pages. paperback. keywords: Islam Women History Autobiography Feminism. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Throughout my childhood, my grandmotherYasmina, who wa silliterate and grew up in a harem, repeated that to travel is the best way to learn and empower yourself. 'When a woman decides to use her wings, she takes big risks,' she would tell me, but she was convinced that if you didn't use them, it hurt. So recalls Fatema Mernissi at the outset of her mesmerizing new book. Of all the lessons she learned from her grandmother-whose home was, after all, a type of prison-the most central was that the opportunity to cross boundaries was a sacred priviledge. Indeed, in journeys both physical and mental, Mernissi has spent virtually all of her life traveling-determined to 'use her wings' and to renounce her gender's alleged legacy of powerlessness. Bursting with the vitality of Mernissi's personality and of her rich heritage, Scheherazade Goes West reveals the author's unique experiences as a liberated, independent Moroccan woman faced with the peculiarities and unexpected encroachments of Western culture. Her often surprising discoveries about the conditions of and attitudes toward women around the world-and the exquisitely embroidered amalgam of clear-eyed autobiography and dazzling meta-fiction by which she relates those assorted discoveries-add up to a deliciously wry, engagingly cosmopolitan, and deeply penetrating narrative. In her previous bestselling works, Mernissi-widely recognized as the world's greatest living Koranic scholar and Islamic sociologist-has shed unprecedented light on the lives of women in the Middle East. Now, as a writer and scholarly veteran of the high-wire act of straddling disparate societies, she trains her eyes on the female culture of the West. For her book's inspired central metaphor, Mernissi turns to the ancient Islamic tradition of oral storytelling, illuminating her grandmother's feminized, subersive, and highly erotic take on Scheherazade's wife-preserving tales from The Arabian Nights-and then ingeniously applying them to her own lyrically embellished personal narrative. Interwoven with vivid ruminations on her childhood, her education, and her various international travels are the author's piquant musings on a range of deeply embedded societal conditions that add up, Mernissi aruges, to a veritable 'Western harem.' A provocative and lively challenge to the common assumption that women have it so much better in the West than anywhere else in the world, Mernissi's book is an entrancing and timely look at the way we live here and now. By inspiring us to reconsider even the most commonplace aspects of our culture with fresh eyes and a healthy dose of superstition, Scheherazade Goes West offers an invigorating, candid, and entertaining new perspective on the themes and ideas to which Betty Friedan first turned us on nearly forty years ago. inventory #29633.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. States "First Washington Square Press hardcover printing June 2001"; number line complete 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Boards resist opening past 60 degrees; as-new unread. A professor of Sociology at the University of Mohammed V in Rabat, Morocco, the author asserts Muslim harems are not the sources of compliant sex westerners envision. Rather, "In Muslim harems, men expect their enslaved women to fight back ferociously and abort their schemes for pleasure." How odd. She also asserts Western women endure a type of slavery equivalent to that imposed on Muslim women under Shari'a law, based on a saleswoman in a New York clothing store telling her that female American office workers have to watch their weight and fit into size 6 skirts -- sizes 4 and 6 being the only sizes available -- or their careers will suffer. While we have certainly all heard the term "slaves of fashion" -- and the notion that grown women must emulate the pale, anorexic, teen-age models in the fashion magazines is of course either laughable or pathetic -- the reader will reach her or his own conclusions on Ms. Mernissi's "equivalences," as well as the notion that wealthy and powerful men are willing to spend large, ongoing sums surrounding themselves with attractive young women in hopes those comely lasses will systematically and consistently "abort their schemes for pleasure." 228 pp. including index. Reduced from $19.
