In this rare first-hand account of the private world of a Cairo harem during the years
before Egypt declared independence in 1922, Shaarawi recalls her childhood and early
adult life in the seclusion of an upper-class Egyptian household, including her marriage
at age thirteen. Her subsequent separation from her husband gave her time for an extended
formal education, as well as an unexpected taste of independence and a critical understanding
of the price of confinement. Shaarawi's feminist activism grew along with her involvement
in Egypt's nationalist struggle and culminated in 1923 in a daring act of defiance,
when she publicly removed her veil in a Cairo railroad station.--Publisher description
