The third part in the internationally acclaimed Islamic Quintet
TARIQ ALI is a writer and filmmaker. He has written more than a dozen books on world history and politics--including Pirates of the Caribbean, Bush in Babylon, The Clash of Fundamentalisms and The Obama Syndrome--as well as five novels in his Islam Quintet series and scripts for the stage and screen. He is an editor of the New Left Review and lives in London.
Ali spins a web of tales that is as inventive and fantastical as
the Arabian nights.

social structure constructs a rich picture of history and the way
we think about history.
*Times Literary Supplement*
Tales of anguish, longing, lust and love all find their way to The
Stone Woman. Ali paints a vivid picture of a fading world.
