Seeking Sanctuary: Journeys to Sudan

Part reportage, part travel writing, Seeking Sanctuary presents the stories of six Western converts to Islam seeking a better life for themselves by moving to a country nearer their new religion. Their journeys, spiritual, cultural and geographical, told in their own words, are set within the author's own experience as an expatriate in Khartoum.
Journeys to Sudan
Seeking Sanctuary tells the stories of a group of Western Muslim converts who found liberation in Sudan.
They describe their spiritual and physcial journeys from one way of life to another, contrasting their fragile expectations with a sweet reality. They explain how they found happiness in a country caricatured as starving and angry. But most of all, they provide us with insights that challenge lazy prejudice about Islam, in a striking counterpoint to fears about fundamentalism, extremism and religious hostility.
Seeking Sanctuary delves deeper into the psychology of a country and its inhabitants than our current-affairs-driven media has ever allowed. It is a stunning collection of intimate portraits that dazzle, especially in contrast to the general religious and cultural nervousness. It is a wonderful series of stories about adversity, courage and life change.
