    A Collection of Personal Narratives by Muslim Women

    edited by Zaheera Jina

    SAFFRON: A Collection of Personal Narratives by Muslim Women
    is an anthology of writing that draws on the lived realities of Muslim
    women. Food and cooking, hardship and conflict, intimacy, baby-making,
    children, living with in-laws and self-esteem are some of the
    experiences unpacked in this collection of poignant personal narratives.
    This collection will remind and reassure that, although life brings
    with it many challenges, you as a woman are never alone in what you go
    through – many women walk the journey with you.
