Beschreibung

This introspective tale charts the bumpy journey of a young Muslim woman navigating faith and feminism.
Aspiring documentary-maker Dunya Dawood had big ideas until she fell in love. Pregnant on a flight to the United States, she is upgraded to business class away from her husband and son. Away, for once, from her life of domesticity in the Middle East, she reflects on the choices and relationships that led her down a trajectory she never meant to take.
How do you manage the precarious balance between culture, faith, family obligations and feminism? And what happens when you hit a little turbulence?

Portrait

Hafsa Lodi is an American journalist who has been covering fashion in the Middle East for the past decade. She moved to the UAE at 14. She has a BA in journalism from the Ryerson School of Journalism in Toronto and an MA in Islamic Law from SOAS in London. The relationships between religion, culture and modernity have always fascinated Hafsa, who covered topics like honour killings in Canada's South Asian communities, the use of DNA evidence in rape cases in Pakistan and the industrialization of the Holy City of Makkah, before turning to the fashion journalism beat. She writes for The National newspaper and fashion magazines, Mojeh and Vogue India.
