More on The Jewel of Medina

Over at Smart Bitches, Trashy Books (a blog about romance novels), there’s a really interesting discussion of the prologue of Jones’ novel that’s segued into a larger discussion of the problem with the book, the publisher’s response, the cultural sensitivity issues involved. Sherry Jones comments, as well as several Muslims, Christians, and others. It’s a rational discussion, with a lot of interesting ideas floating around. There’s also a pdf of the prologue still up, if anyone wants to assuage their curiousity.
