"Since moving to New York from Kuwait City, Maha Alasaker learned that the everyday American has no conception of what daily life is like for women in modern-day Kuwait. Seeking to address this, Alasaker began making portraits of women in their bedrooms and asking them about their lives. This intimate collection of environmental portraits provides a never-before-seen look at what it means to be a young woman in Kuwait."--Publisher's website.
