KATHER INE ZOEPFExcellent DaughtersThe Secret Lives of Young Women Who Are Transforming the Arab WorldFor more than a decade, Katherine Zoepf has lived in or traveled throughout the Arab world, reporting on the lives of women, whose role in the region has never been more in flux. In Excellent Daughters she brings us a new understanding of the changing Arab societies and gives voice to the remarkable women at the forefront of this change.“Shocking and moving....Zoepf 's knowledge of Arabic, her open and inquisitive mind, her combination of lucidity and empathy, and perhaps her own background as a lapsed Jehovah's Witness allow her to understand these women's lives on their own terms with-out losing her footing either in their world or in ours.”—The New York Times Book Review“Chilling....Exposes the tragic dynamics of power and control that lay siege to the bodies, minds and souls of women and girls through inherited rules of patriarchy, tribalism and morality.”—The Wall Street JournalPENGUIN PRESS HARDCOVER • 272 PAGES • 978-1-59420-388-6 • $28.00

One of the great woman adventurers of the twentieth century, Bell turned her back on Vic-torian society to study at Oxford and travel the world, and became the chief architect of Brit-ish policy in the Middle East after World War I. Forthright, spirited, and deeply instructive about the Arab world, this volume brings together Bell’s letters, military dispatches, diary entries, and travel writings to offer an intimate look at a woman who shaped nations.“A fascinating read….The story that emerges is thought-provoking….Gertrude’s legacy makes easy parallels to the present, from world powers trying to determine the political shape of the Middle East to women’s struggles to be taken seriously by male colleagues....She faces it all with humor, passion, and candor; even a century on, she’s a woman worth knowing.”—NPR.orgPENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK • 320 PAGES • 978-0-14-310737-8 • $17.00
