Product Overview
Tourism is always easier than life. In this book, Lisa Ohlen Harris gives a creative, but non-fictional account of her time in Jordan. Rather than looking at the superficialities of Middle Eastern culture, Through the Veil takes a long and honest look at things which are usually hidden from western eyes, dispelling stereotypes and focusing on real individuals, their lives, and their perspectives.
From ritual washing to prayer to fasts, Harris gives a full-orbed depiction of a world that affects us so powerfully and yet which we know so little about.
