Title: A wry haunting voice that echos within long after you finish
Review: Finally someone has been brave enough to give a voice to the everyday experiences of muslim american girls and women! And what a voice it is! Memory of Hands is a collection of short stories but all interrelated and written in such poetic and lyrical language that it reads more like a poetic stream of consciousness (for those of us who have experienced everything she writes of) rather than a collection of short stories. This is a fabulous book for those who are muslim american seeking awknowledgement of their own personal experiences and a great read for non-muslims who want to understand the burdens of bicultualism that many muslim americans must deal with.
