Namina Forna on being inspired by Egypt feminist Nawal El Saadawi Quartz 3 days ago © Provided by Quartz Nawal El Saadawi is pictured during an interview in London in 2018. “They said, ‘you are a savage and dangerous woman.’ I am speaking the truth. And the truth is savage and dangerous.” This line from the novel Woman at Point Zero, by Egyptian doctor, feminist and writer, Nawal El Saadawi, who recently passed away at 89, probably speaks best about the author’s pioneering life. Born in a village outside Cairo in 1931, El Sadaawi was forced to undergo female genital mutilation (FGM) at the age of six and was almost married at 10. Through determination and with a fighting spirit, she would eventually go on to become a medical doctor, women’s rights activist, and a novelist of more than 50 published titles.
