The Representation of Muslims in the works of Soueif and Aboulela - A comparative study

Soueif and Aboulela are two Anglophone writers who choose to represent their culture to the western world using the English language. Though both are Muslims and they are from Arab origin, each one of these writers chooses a different line in writing. Soueif adopts a secular point of view, while Aboulela portrays her characters with a religious conscious. Both writers have dealt with almost the same themes; problems facing Muslims abroad, alienation and love relationships, however due to the different line, the reader would find a great difference between the works of these two. This book attempts to clarify the difference between Soueif's and Aboulela's works and how each affects the image of the Muslim world in the eye of the West.
