Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Islamic Women is the story of Brooks’ intrepid journey toward an understanding of the women behind the veils, and of the often contradictory political, religious, and cultural forces that shape their lives. In fundamentalist Iran, Brooks finagles an invitation to tea with the ayatollah’s widow—and discovers that Mrs. Khomeini dyes her hair.

A good read
Revisado: 11-22-20
A glimpse into a world where few foreigners get a chance to experience. Touching in places and horrific in others. A definite conversation starter.
