True, they went out of style 40 years ago, but what happened to wearing western styles in public? Catherine Raia Silliman took this question on as soon as she arrived in Kuwait as wife of the U.S. Ambassador. She met women across the political spectrum and discovered that the pull and tug between conservatives and liberals in the Gulf is alive and well. In 21st Century Kuwait, women on both sides are going to have a much larger say in how things turn out and it may not be what we in the West expect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine Raia Silliman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1984253972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781984253972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.46d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2018","brand":"Catherine Raia Silliman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44540627550463,"sku":"9781984253972","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a77da51d-0a51-4a96-8a85-c53f3f8c7f6b.jpg?v=1700588968","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/veils-in-the-vanguard-catherine-raia-silliman-9781984253972","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
