The Nawal El Saadawi Reader Nawal El Saadawi Books Reviews

This book should be read by anyone interested in Egyptian polictics, women's lives, and how Middle Easterners view Westerners. Saadawi is a psychiatrist by training and is in her mid 70s. She expounds on such topics as the rise of fundamentalism and its backlash against women and the negative effects of globalization. For example she points out that back when she was in medical school, in the early 50s, none of the women in her class wore the veil. She includes a very touching vignette about one of her patient, a young woman who goes crazy from isolation imposed by her distant fundamentalist father. While I don't necessarily agree with all of Dr. Saadawi's views they are certainly enlightening and thought provoking. Dr. Saadawi has also suffered imprisonment under Sadat's presidency and death threats from fundamentalists for her opinions.
I am very pleased with this book. It has helped my students with their understanding of one of El Saadawi's novels.
