More than a decade after the publication of “Thus She Killed Scheherazade,” Joumana Haddad returns with her scathing commandments in “Scheherazade’s Last Commandments.” This time, the feisty Lebanese poet and journalist writes commandments on marriage, motherhood, feminism, and the body. She challenges patriarchy, in both its glaring and hidden manifestations… In these chapters, she draws on personal and public experiences to share her thoughts on current issues, while questioning the meaning of feminism today. There are endless questions about the meaning of freedom, love, age, and other themes. The questions vary and diversify, but the only constant in this book remains the call for liberation from all the legacies that restrict women and men alike.
