Women on a Journey
Zangana, Haifa / Cumberbatch, Judy
Weaving between the women's memories of Iraq- nostalgic and nightmarish- and their lives as exiles in London, Zangana's novel gives voice to the richness and complexity of Iraqi women's experiences. Through their stories, the novel represents a powerful critique of the violence done to ordinary people by those who hold power both in Iraq and in the West.
