In February we will be reading Nine Parts of Desire, The Hidden World of Islamic Women, by Geraldine Brooks. The New York Times Book Review says it is "a valid, entertaining account of women in the Muslim world." Publishers Weekly says "Powerful and enlightening...Brooks presents stunning vignettes of Muslim women." The book is in paperback, 239 pages, available for $14.00 at Toadstool. (Coincidently, the author is married to Tony Horwitz, author of Confederates in the Attic, which we read a few months ago.)
We will meet on a Tuesday night this time, February 27, at 6:30 PM. The February meeting will be at the Keene Public Library, 60 Winter Street, in the Trustees Room on the second floor.
