Description
In this text, the author explores what she argues is an indissoluble link between war and sexuality. In her research throughout the Middle East, she interviewed women in rural and urban areas about their sexuality, relationships with men - husbands, brothers, sons - relationships with women, and the special conditions of their lives. Based on these interviews, and her close reading of work by Middle Eastern men and women, Dr Accad explores the connections among sexuality, war, nationalism, pacifism, violence, love and power as they relate to the body, the partner, the family, political ideologies and religion.
