1991
Your rating
A women's prison and a dream of ascending to heaven.
Why this book matters
One of the first to give voice to Egypt's poorest women. In The Golden Chariot a prisoner chooses who among her cellmates deserves heaven — turning the jail into a gallery of women's lives literature had ignored.
