Ultimately your loss, as you missed reading a brilliant novel

It's ironic how the Islamic ideas have not been challenged much in this work and story has accommodated so much for regressive beliefs of Islam through two key plot points: 1. The free spirited Hasina ends up becoming a prostitute, a price for exercising free choice and going against Islamic beliefs towards the status and place of women in family and society 2. Chanu's apprehensions about Nazneen come true as she starts an affair with another man at the first chance she gets to step out of her house and work Not sure how will this book help regressive Islamists to question their own beliefs.

Not Bangladeshi culture but Islamic culture of patriarchy and communal fanaticism.

In Islam of course you can study whatever you want English or even all the languages in the world. Moreover, Islam urges learning, so as a Muslim person I can’t hear this and be silent because this is a wrong information about my religion .
