Overall, the book is indeed a captivating one and thus comes as a positive recommendation to read from me. I rated this book four out of five stars and look forward to more books from the author in the future.

“Stripped to the Bone: Portraits of Syrian Women” by Ghada Alatrash is a captivating book that brings the reader to a closer understanding of Syrian people and their culture.

The book is a collection of seven stories or portraits of Syrian women from various walks of life. Each story is named after the main character of the story and highlights the social evils and insincerity in today’s Syrian society where women have to bear the brunt of a patriarchal society.

The author writes with flair and passion for her home country, Syria, and shares fascinating facts about Syrian history. The book also features beautiful poetry from some of her favorite Syrian poets interspersed with her lovely fiction writing.

Overall, the reviewer recommends this book as a positive read and rates the book with four out of five stars.

The story of each had there aww moments but I do feel like there was to much extra words or explanation that felt were unnecessary. once you get to the root of each story it can stir compassion and empathy. This is just a small group of women stories but open your mind to what happens in other life's.

I liked this book because it helped me to learn more about the world and what other women have gone through. The book tells the fictional stories of seven Syrian women and their culture. It's often heartbreaking to hear their stories, but at the same time, it gave me a feeling of triumph for the women who overcame. It talks about their identity and courage. I would highly recommend this book if you want to learn more about the world.
