Reviews
"In offering a range of vignettes of Muslim life in North America from spiritual practices, political activism, family conflict, loss of homelands, to settling into new immigrant lives and forging communities of solidarity, New Moons is a timely corrective to the monolithic presentation of Muslims still pervasive in contemporary culture." -World Literature Today
"A very moving and varied anthology of poetry, fiction, essays, and memoir by American Muslims provides a window into their experiences, especially after 9/11." --Matt Witt's World Wide Work
