Written in different languages, modes and forms, the stories in this collection deal with identity, domesticity, religion, desires, love, rebellion, culture, society, rebellion, and freedom. Stories, in the collection, discreetly question the old values, gender relations and debunk the stereotyped identity of Muslim womanhood.
