A proposito di questo titolo
'Womanhood is a beautiful and empathetic portrayal of Muslim feminine identity, community and belonging, and a life-affirming tonic in an increasingly fractured world.' - Sharlene Teo

'I can't think of anyone better placed to share our stories with the world.' - Zeba Talkhani, author of My Past Is A Foreign Country

Love. Friendship. Family. Faith.
Across eight years and thousands of hours of interviews, Tahmina Begum followed the lives of Noor, Khaira and Moumita: three women living at a crossroads, each weighing the cost of being a Good Woman. In Womanhood, she invites us into their lives.
Noor longs for a marriage that mirrors the loyalty of her parents' world and the openness of her own. After a long negotiation between her heart and faith, she decides to leave the man who is perfect in every way but one.
Khaira, once the girl in bedazzled jeans and heeled sandals, is twenty years into a life built at great cost. Expectations written long before her birth have shaped her into someone she no longer recognises. Now, she must decide who she wants to become.
Moumita strives to be a modern woman even as tradition tugs at her. When a cherished friendship fractures, she begins to question where friendship belongs in a life so often defined by marriage and family.
Together, their stories illuminate questions that resonate far beyond their own stories. What do we inherit from the women who came before us? How do we balance duty with desire?
Richly observed and profoundly moving, Womanhood is an unforgettable exploration of identity, belonging and how we find our way home to ourselves.©2025 Tahmina Begum (P)2026 Orion Publishing Group Limited
