Tove_Reads I enjoyed reading a book filled with so many contradictions, new versus old, tradition versus modern, as well as first living as a rich person in Muslim Sudan. and then as a poor person in liberal Christian England. This book explains the differences in an interesting and good way, and I would definitely recommend this book to readers who would like to understand these differences better. It is a well-written fast read, and a good, accurate. 4y
