The author blends personal memoir with an instructional guide to the dance known in the West as belly dancing. It is not only the story of a young Arab girl as she is initiated into womanhood, but a history of the dance from the earliest times to the present and a personal investigation into the effects of the dance's movements on individual parts of the body and the whole psyche. Originally published in German as Der Ruf der Grobmutter by Promedia (1996). Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
