My university course give me opportunity to read this book, I don't know why so many people rated it below five stars. This is one of best book I've ever came across..
Plot Story
Leila herself tells the story of a widow Sammar. Sammar works as translator for Rae, who's a secular. Soon after their frequent meetings Sammar begins to love Rae and desires to marry him but only thing that stops her of marrying to Rae is religion. Sammar is Muslim and wants Rae to be Muslim so they can marry but Rae enjoys knowledge he has about Islam however, he is never ready to accept Islam. There's no other way to marry him for Sammar. She sticks firmly with religion and sacrifice her desire to marry Sammar for her religion.
Amazing story I must say and obviously I'm going to read other books of Leila Aboulela. I hope her other novels will give me same joy.
