‘The collection’s range of female poets from radically different eras is extraordinary, as is how fearlessly they speak about their desires’ - Mona Eltahawy

'The very process of anthologizing the names of so many unfamiliar poets has provided a useful historical survey.' - Roger Allen, MESA Bulletin

'An outspoken and controversial book that provides many moments for both enjoyment and reflection.' - Denys Johnston-Davies, Al-Ahram

'Al-Udhari's effort to clarify this subject really does fill a gap and contributes to a more balanced discussion that the works about women in the modern Arab world allow.' - Ohio State University, Folklore Bulletin

‘A unique anthology that transcends love and liberation’ - Moris Farhi
