520 1  "In Riyadh, against Saddam's invasion of Kuwait and the 
       first Gulf War, we learn the story of Munira--with the 
       gorgeous eyes--and the unspeakable tragedy she suffers as 
       her male nemesis wreaks revenge for an insult to his 
       character and manhood. It is also the tale of many other 
       women of Saudi Arabia who pass through the remand center 
       where Munira works, victims and perpetrators of crimes, 
       characters pained and tormented, trapped in cocoons of 
       silence and fear. Munira records their stories on pieces 
       of paper that she folds up and places in the mysterious 
       bottle given to her long ago by her grandmother, a 
       repository for the stories of the dead, that they might 
       live again. This controversial novel looks at many of the 
       issues that characterize the lives of women in modern 
       Saudi society, including magic and envy, honor and revenge,
       and the strict moral code that dictates male-female 
       interaction."-- Dust Jacket.
