Examines the lives of women who have forged a new community in a shantytown on the outskirts of Khartoum, the largely Muslim, heavily Arabized capital in the north of the country. This book examines the way women's bodies are politicized by their displacement, analyzing issues such as religious conversion, marriage, and female circumcision.
