Women Claim Islam presents the literature of contemporary Islamic feminist authors, and analyses their strategies for self-definition and self-empowerment. Illustrating the tremendous strides that Arab women have made towards independence since the 1970s, it shatters prevailing stereotypes. It also provides an alternative feminist understanding of recent, significant events such as the Gulf War.
Miriam Cooke brings together voices that need to be heard, featuring writers like Assia Djebar, Nawal El Saadawi, Fatima Mernissi, and Zaynab al-Ghazali.
