About this product

Product Information

When Ailsa Keppie puts on the hijab for the first time, it solidifies her commitment to her new, chosen religion. She gives up the lights and action of the circus for the position of wife and mother, learns Arabic, and moves to Morocco. A new mother living in a strange country, under foreign rules, Ailsa experiences isolation and racism, as well as romance and sisterhood, in her quest to fit in with her new community. She welcomes another wife into her marriage hoping to experience the peace and joy of a pious life. As the story progresses, cracks appear in her relationships. Things are not as blissful as Ailsa would have others believe. We are drawn into her inner struggle, often seeing the folly of her choices, but championing her to prevail. Torn between her inner voices of duty, shame, longing, and hope, she is determined to find the light that will get her through darkening times. Ailsa's story is easily recognizable by women who have dimmed their light in order to survive. For any woman who has faced similar constraints of marriage, religion, or culture, Ailsa's story will help bring clarity and a sense of knowing she is not alone.

Reviews
"This story is about the desperate need to be loved, if not by a spouse, then by God, to the point of losing any sense of self in the process. Ailsa's forthright style moves the story along." Dr. Leslie Ann Costello, L. Psych, WomanCare Psychological Services "In her lyrical memoir, Ailsa takes us on a sensual, transcultural journey as she weaves the call of Islam with the sultry heat of Morocco, infusing it with deep personal insight and compassion." Barry Carl, CCEP, EMM, CSB, CSSE "Ailsa has written a deeply moving journey of her life path-from Christianity to Islam; from circus performer to homemaker; from a woman serving her husband to an independent life." Susan Kanor, MA, CBT, IIBA International Trainer "It was disturbing to watch Ailsa cover and sink into the darkest depths of voluntary submission in her quest to feel accepted, and loved. It is an intense account of the pursuit for fulfillment." Montaha Hidefi, colour archeologist, writer, public speaker and author of Groping for Truth
