Description
Published with a new foreword, Nawal El Saadawi's landmark novel Woman at Point Zero tells the unforgettable story of Firdaus, a woman on death row. Born into poverty and abuse, she is driven to sex work to support herself, only to face moral outrage from society and the bitter knowledge that true freedom comes when all hope is abandoned.
This powerful novel explores the harsh realities faced by women in patriarchal societies, where childhood dreams are crushed and ambitions are met with neglect. Firdaus's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, even in the face of overwhelming adversity.
