It opens our eyes, destroys prejudices, and is very entertaining.\" – Mario Vargas Llosa, Nobel Prize winner for Literature.\n\n Scheherazade is dead, murdered! And never has a crime been so joyful—or so ethical. By killing the heroine of The Arabian Nights, poet and journalist Joumana Haddad dismantles the myth of the classic of Arab literature, which she accuses of sending the wrong message to women. In her nights of invented stories to avoid death, Scheherazade was not an example of resistance and rebellion, but of concession and negotiation of her basic rights. It is with this premise that Joumana weaves a frank and explosive account of what it means to be an Arab woman today, condemning the stance of those who assume the role of victim. \nJoumana Haddad grew up in Beirut, Lebanon. The daughter of conservative and educated parents, she discovered through reading a way to understand the world around her. Her true idols as a teenager were the Marquis de Sade, Balzac, and Victor Hugo: unusual icons compared to the movie stars her friends were always swooning over.\n Despite the psychological wounds caused by the Lebanese civil war, which began in 1975 when Joumana was only 4 years old, and the limitations she experienced after studying at an all-girls school for 14 years, the author shows how she became a complete, conscious woman, very different from the clichés about Arab women. \nOne of the most committed representatives of the fight for women's freedom in the Middle East, the author tells how she became an award-winning poet, editor of the main Lebanese newspaper, An-Nahar, and creator of the first erotic literary magazine in the Arab world — Jasad (body, in Arabic), which addresses themes such as sex, polygamy, virginity and forced marriage, and has earned her both admiration and censorship and death threats.\n Joumana's book begins as a fiery protest, intent on clarifying that she is not a submissive figure and that her similarities to a Western woman are greater than one might imagine. Once the initial fury subsides, the author reveals the most incredible stories of her own development, presenting a reality we ignore, and—even more fascinating—showing a unique and interesting life, full of moving characters, curious facts, and poetic licenses that only a true artist can use.  \nIn a provocative account, Joumana Haddad extols the liberating power of literature and knowledge and immerses us in the sensuality of her youthful discoveries.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159416750332,"sku":"9788501092205","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/b51f08c234d807f68dbfa50d65df588f_4accdd41-dd57-4606-8057-c31ce14eefb4.jpg?v=1778320114"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/joumana-haddad.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
