Description - Secrets behind the Burqa by Rosemary Sookhdeo
This revised edition goes behind the scenes into the lives of Muslim women and reveals a secret world that is unknown to outsiders. It shows how their lives are very different from those of Western women and reveals the tensions and stresses that Muslim women often face within their families and societies. The author describes how the little understood concepts of honour and shame can oppress and endanger women, and how arranged and forced marriages can be life-threatening situations.
