In this provocative book Joumana Haddad uses the format of the
political pamphlet to describe the liberating impact of literature
on her life. She tells of reading the Marquis de Sade at twelve, of
her metamorphosis into an award-winning poet, and reflects upon how
this has shaped her as an Arab woman, as a writer and as a magazine
editor. Joumana challenges prevalent notions of identity and
womanhood in the Middle East and speaks of how she came to create
the Arab world's first erotic literary magazine, Jasad (Body), that
has earned her both admiration and censure. Fiery and candid, I
Killed Scheherazade is a provocative exploration of what it means
to be an 'Arab woman' today.
