(Applause Books). I Am A Woman is a journey, not through time so much as through realms of consciousness expressed in the haunting voices of some of literature's most powerful women. Together, on the page or in performance, these voices weave a powerful and haunting tapestry. Each woman's struggle permeates another's triumph, and each triumph rings with the irony of its passing. Here is a repertoire of the heart. Among the selections: Pentimento * Diary of Anne Frank * Lady Chatterly's Lover * A Conversation Against Death * The Liberated Orgasm * Little Girl My Stringbean My Lovely Woman * Dance of Death * In My Mother's House * The Madwoman of Chaillot * Lovers and Other Strangers * Misalliance.

An Egyptian woman's reflections on her changing homeland—updated with an afterword on the Arab Spring In language that vividly evokes the lush summers of Cairo and the stark beauty of the Arabian desert, Leila Ahmed movingly recounts her Egyptian childhood growing up in a rich tradition of Islamic women and describes how she eventually came to terms with her identity as a feminist living in America. As a young woman in Cairo in the forties and fifties, Ahmed witnessed some of the major transformations of this century—the end of British colonialism, the rise of Arab nationalism, and the breakdown of Egypt's once multireligious society. As today's Egypt continues to undergo revolutionary change, Ahmed's inspirational story remains as poignant and relevant as ever.
