Publisher Description: In "Dreams of Trespass," Fatima Mernissi weaves her own memories with the dreams and memories of the women who surrounded her in the courtyard of her youth - women who, deprived of access to the world outside, recreated it from sheer imagination. "Dreams of Trespass" is the provacative story of a girl confronting the mysteries of time and place, gender and sex in the recent Muslim world.
