À propos de ce contenu audio

 Bloomsbury presents Woman at Point Zero by Nawal El Saadawi, read by Amira Ghazalla.

'An unforgettable, unmissable book for the new global feminist.'
The Times

'I think her life has been one long death threat. At a time when nobody else was talking, she spoke the unspeakable' – Margaret Atwood


'All the men I did get to know filled me with but one desire: to lift my hand and bring it smashing down on his face.'

So begins Firdaus's remarkable story of rebellion against a society founded on lies, hypocrisy, brutality and oppression. Born to a peasant family in the Egyptian countryside, Firdaus struggles through childhood, seeking compassion and knowledge in a world which gives her little of either. As she grows up and escapes the fetters of her childhood, each new relationship teaches her a bitter but liberating truth – that the only free people are those who want nothing, fear nothing and hope for nothing.

This classic novel has been an inspiration to countless people across the world. Saadawi's searing indictment of society's brutal treatment of women continues to resonate today.©1975 Nawal El Saadawi (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Classiques Fiction

Gripping story, I couldn't stop listening until the end. Beautifully written, translated and performed. The protagonist is truly and extraordinary woman, with an extremely dramatic life story, whose wisdom and strength can inspire us all. The actress's performance is excellent, so sensitive and emotional that I could believe she was really the protagonist. Thank you, I am deeply moved by this book.

Extraordinary work of literature
