The Moonlit Cage: A Novel
This novel was an interesting way to learn about life for a young Afghani girl. In Darya we learn of the repressive life of females in Afghanistan. We follow her jouney to India and then England where she is always being ruled by men. There is a feminism to this novel that was really strong. I did find Darya's time in England to be the longest part of the novel and more predictable. The love story between Dary and the Englishman David is rather predictable and somewhat "Harequin" but the novel has a lot of important things to say about women's rights in Middle East at this time that far outway any of the standard love struggle.… (mere)

This was nice light read - unique enough not to be entirely predictable, but easy enough to be light and refreshing. The descriptions of the Moroccan town had me feeling like I was really there.
Great read, nicely researched, good plot. Howver, plenty of mistakes in the Russian words and names used, a little surprised given how much effort has been put in for the research, the least the author and/or editor could have done is to check with a native speaker.
