Synopsis "En el Uadi (in Spanish)"
The culture shock between the Anglo-Saxon world and the Muslim world is examined in this first-person account of a young Australian woman who accompanies her husband back to his village in a valley in Jordan. This autobiography—which also functions as a novel, poetic prose, and travel literature—is a sensitive exploration of family, expatriation, affiliation, and the complexities of human relationships. The author tells of her experiences without falling into the trap of denigration, stereotypes, idealization, or exotic Orientalism.El choque cultural entre el mundo anglosajón y el mundo musulmán se examina en esta narración en primera persona de una joven australiana que acompaña a su marido de regreso a su pueblo en un valle del Jordán. Esta autobiografía—que también funciona como una novela, prosa poética y literatura de viajes—es una exploración sensible de la familia, la expatriación, la afiliación y las complejidades de las relaciones humanas. La autora cuenta su experiencia sin caer en la trampa de la denigración, el estereotipo, la idealización o el orientalismo exótico.
