The Burning Veil - A Novel of Arabia

The Burning Veil - A Novel of Arabia

Sarah Moss must decide whether to marry Ibrahim, a devout Saudi Arabian. His fierce jealous mother hates and fears her as does his brother, an Islamist hardliner. A feminist, an idealist, and very much in love, Sarah aims to live with integrity. Can sheâ‚¬"dare sheâ‚¬" in the kingdom where women are kept veiled and secluded?
This love story of cultural collision is also a spiritual quest for Sarah, who is both fascinated and repelled by Islam.
Former Middle East journalist Jean Grant takes us behind the locked doors of Saudi Arabian society. She presents a picture of the controversial kingdom on the cusp of change and of the men and women, both expatriates and nationals, who either embrace or courageously confront their destiny.
