Londonistan Virgins

Description

A year after Huda and Yvonne’s encounter in the Mediterranean, where their bitter memories surged like crashing waves, they meet again, this time in London, where Yvonne lives. When they stumble into Speakers Corner in Hyde Park, they clash with Hisham, a young Arab man. This encounter sparks a thrilling and dangerous adventure, reflecting the strangeness that has recently swept through Arab society. In her novel “Londonistan Virgins,” Hanan al-Shaykh continues her bold and distinctive narrative journey, like a free-spirited bee that never stops hovering until it reaches the nectar.
