This full-colour, English-Arabic bilingual edition of Facets of Emirati Women Extremely Short Story Compilation [ESSC] provides fascinating 50-word stories of a new generation of women from the United Arab Emirates; one of the youngest and most rapidly developing nations of the world. Today, less than 20% of the six million population are Emirati Arabs; the majority now consist of Asian nationals. In addition, there are now many more males than females inhabiting the UAE. Together these remarkable contrasts have conspired to ensure that, to the outside world, Emirati women appear members of a relatively unfamiliar and enigmatic sector of UAE society who, as all Emiratis, have experienced incredible changes on a global scale. It is for these Emirati women and their men-folk that this book hopes to provide a creative space, to enable them to express their thoughts and ideas in writing and photographs to provide a glimpse into their world.
