Author: Emilie Ruete

Set against a backdrop of political intrigue in the great age of European colonialism, this engrossing memoir offers a vivid portrait of nineteenth-century Arab and African life, not only in the palace, but in the city and plantations as well. The author provides a comparison between a woman's life in Muslim society and the conditions within the 19th-century European bourgeoisie.
