    BC .. i actually think that these are a collection of blog entries ... the book is pretty old now .. at least 5 years ...

    Yeah, the book is written in the format of email newsletters.. and it is more than 4 years old for sure! But I just got to read it last month.

    I read the book last year and loved it. It was so heartbreaking..those men were all jerks!

    I think/hope Omani men are better then that.

    Wouldn't it have been awesome if this book had kicked off a Saudi feminist movement?

    Read the English translated version.
    Must say that it was humours and interesting though a very light read i.e. the language used was very basic and does not capture the context that could be translated in Arabic writing
