Note:"Heather Raffo's 9 parts of desire is a portrait of the extraordinary and ordinary lives of a cross section of Iraqi women: a sexy painter, a radical Communist, a doctor, an exile, wives and lovers. Delving into the many conflicting aspects of what it means to be a woman in the age-old war zone that is Iraq, this poetic work is an unusually timely meditation on the ancient, the modern, and the feminine." --Book jacket
