[QUOTE]Originally posted by VanillaBullshit: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by akshar: [qb] there are a great number of sociological and anthropological books on this matter. They make s fascinating reading. On my shelves I have Re-envisioning Egypt 1919-1952 The Middle East and What Went Wrong by Bernard Lewis Culture Shock Susan Wilson Khul-Khaal Five Egyptian Women tell their story Nayra Atiya Shahhat An Egyptian Richard Critchfield Honour and Shame Women in Modern Iraq Sana al-Khayyat There are also authors like Naguib Mahfouz, Ahdaf Soueif who wrote excellent fiction. Read the Sugar street series for a great insight into Cairo. Ahdaf Soueif is my favourite and how she intertwines politics and love. then and now. I also have books from a series by Arabic women writers The Stone of Laughter Hoda Barakat Mothballs Alia Mamdouh The Eye of the Mirror Liana Badr The Homeland Hamida Nana In the House of Silence Fadia Faqir I also have about 10 books of the 'Not without my daughter' type which give you a great insight into the arrogance of some Western women and the impotence of Arab men in being able to explain some of their deep held beliefs. BTW when people say a multi cultural relationship needs working at I mean this seriously. Whilst I am delighted to share my book list why on earth haven't you gone down the local library and done some research. As for knowing where he comes from, ask!!!!!!! [/qb][/QUOTE]Reading is helpful yes, but nothing worth learning is ever taught. Reading all the books in the world is no substitute for experience, the only teacher. [/QB][/QUOTE]
