The Hookah Girl: And Other True Stories by Marguerite Dabaie

5.0

This graphic novel by Palestinian-American author, Marguerite Dabaie is deceptively simple, but gives readers a realistic, light-hearted, honest, and real glimpse into the lives of Middle-Eastern families. Dabaie doesn't pull any punches when she refers to prejudices that those of Middle-Eastern descent, even while poking fun at her own cultures' quirks. Part-textbook (for the information) part-art installment, I highly recommend this for anyone looking for an insight into a different culture.
