"Seeking Sanctuary" is a rich and detailed journey into Sudan, a
country that crystallizes present fears and prejudices about Islam,
extremism and borderless global terrorism. It is told through the
eyes of convertspeople intimately familiar with the western world
but who have chosen Sudan and its apparent discomfort over their
former existence. The result is not the cliched clash of cultures,
or a narrative of awkwardness, but an uplifting account of joyful
assimilation. The book provides an extraordinary insight into the
religious journey to conversion. Its focus on the individual
stories reveals the enormous complexity of motive, the subtlety of
the experience, and the need for sensitivity rather than
commonplace suspicion. It explains how the concerts have molded
their own belief systems out of a common set of values to create an
existence that allows them to feel comfortable about themselves and
their environment for the first time. It contains a fascinating
collection of intimate portraits, and individual discoveries."
