Inshallah on the trail of the Arabs. Jóhanna Kristjónsdóttir tells the story.
Jóhanna is more knowledgeable than most Icelanders about the affairs of the countries at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, and a few years ago she began studying Arabic in Egypt and then Syria. In this lively story, we follow her difficult studies, housing problems and difficulties in understanding foreign conditions. We get to know the people in this distant part of the world, their society and customs. Jóhanna paints vivid pictures of friendliness and cheerfulness, magic and significant cultural relics, but also misunderstanding and cultural clashes. A much-needed book in an era of misconceptions about Muslim life and culture. (Bókatíðindi 2001).
