Over the course of a week, the nave and dreamy girl finds herself quickly betrothed and married, and is soon living in Brooklyn.

Three generations of Palestinian-American women living in Brooklyn are torn between individual desire and the strict mores of Arab culture in this heart-wrenching story of love, intrigue and courage.

Palestine, 1990. Seventeen-year-old Isra prefers reading books to entertaining the suitors her father has chosen for her. Over the course of a week, the naïve and dreamy girl finds herself quickly betrothed and married, and is soon living in Brooklyn. There Isra struggles to adapt to the expectations of her oppressive mother-in-law Fareeda and strange new husband Adam, a pressure that intensifies as she begins to have children – four daughters instead of the sons Fareeda tells Isra she must bear.

Brooklyn, 2008. Eighteen-year-old Deya, Isra’s oldest daughter, must meet with potential husbands at her grandmother Fareeda’s insistence, though her only desire is to go to college. But her grandmother is firm on the matter: the only way to secure a worthy future for Deya is through marriage to the right man.

But fate has a will of its own, and soon Deya will find herself on an unexpected path that leads her to shocking truths about her family…

Set in an America at once foreign to many and staggeringly close at hand, A Woman Is No Man is a story of culture and honour, secrets and betrayals, love and violence. It is an intimate glimpse into a controlling and closed cultural world, and a universal tale about family and the ways silence and shame can destroy those we have sworn to protect.

Nice fabric, comfortable, easy maintenance
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length, Size: Large, Color: Taupe, Special Size: 27.5" Full Length, Size: Large, Color: Taupe
I ordered a medium and they’re actually a size large. And they are just too large. I should’ve gotten the small, as recommended I thought I was ordering medium and I think I would’ve been OK with a medium, but where I usually wear a small and they sent me a large. It was just ridiculously large. They are lightweight and they are warm. I’m a senior and I’m thin so I get cold very easily especially in early morning and evening, so I like to wear them in the morning for my walks/yoga , they also work nicely under a longish skirt so it’s not so sheer… will definitely get more but will go with the small size. Just for reference, I’m 5 foot seven I usually wear a small or a size 5/6 usa size so these were too large, particularly in the waist just overall they were too large, but I think even if I got a small size they’re still gonna be kind of large in the stomach. I have an hourglass shape just for reference, but they are very comfortable, and I love the fabric. I am keeping them because I like the fabric and I really need them. I just will not wear them out of the house right now because they’re not fitting properly but next go round we’ll get the right size. Price was right they were having a sale so it was a bit of an impulse buy. But hello it was only 10 bucks! so that’s why it’s not worth sending it back for me. Overall, very nice quality and would recommend. Cats like the fabric too! 😸

Buttery soft and flattering fit
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length with Pockets, Size: Small, Color: Taupe
I love these leggings! They are buttery soft (as advertised) and have a very flattering fit. Also the grey/beige color is really pretty. About to buy another pair in black! Highly recommend!

Not for people over 5'6"
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length with Pockets, Size: XX-Large, Color: Slate Grey
These are definitely designed for shorter people. They get 5* because they're still low cost and decent quality on fabric. Just have to pull the waist up because the calfs are not designed to be worn as capris and pull the entire leggings down. If it sized up one more then they'd just fall down because of the waist. So waistband fits as expected. They're just also for shorter people than me.
