A bestseller throughout the Arab world, a tribute to sex,
eroticism, language and liberty, "The Proof of the Honey" is a
superb celebration of female pleasure. A Syrian scholar working in
Paris is invited to contribute to a conference on the subject of
classic erotic literature in Arabic. The invitation provides
occasion for her to evoke memories from her own life, to exult in
her personal liberty, her lovers, her desires, and to revisit
moments of shared intimacy with other women as they discuss life,
love, and sexual desire.
Far more than an erotic novel, "The Proof of the Honey" is a
surprising and illuminating voyage into the history of Arabic
literature. Borrowing inspiration from "The Thousand and One
Nights," erudite asides are woven into the fabric of the
protagonist's story and the stories of her lovers. Affirming that
"Arabic is the language of sex," and making desire the source of
her own personal liberty, Al Neimi has written a stirring novel
about the place afforded sex in modern Arabic society and its
relationship to the long, rich tradition of Arabic erotica.
