The Translator, Leila Aboulela "I enjoyed the vivid simplicity of the writing and found the two protagonists and their love across religious lines beautifully drawn, but part of what appears through this clarity of writing is the author?s failure to ascribe humanity or depth to those outside her own camp.? Her exile in Scotland is peopled with shadowy half-figures with whom we are offered no connection and in whom she takes little interest.??I suppose I would recommend it as an exercise in understanding a world view you may not agree with and liking the person while not liking their views."
