This is a fictional story of Mary Cassatt's sister . It is based on facts about her life. It is a quick read and fairly entertaining especially if you enjoy the work of American Impressionist Mary Cassatt.


Price of Honor: Muslim Women Lift the Veil of Silence on the Islamic World
Review Date: 5/26/2009


This is a powerful book that gave me great insight into the world of Islam. The author actually interviewed many Muslim women and she quotes them in the book. Her own experiences are also insightful. It made me understand a world that I previously didn't know.
