Erased, Not Forgotten, Part 2: More Arab Women Writers Who Deserved Better

Earlier this year, we highlighted seven Arab women writers whose writings, and sometimes person, were erased, not forgotten. In response, we received many fantastic suggestions by ArabLit readers for other women who should be included in this list. We assemble here another five women writers who have been marginalized, erased, or whose life has been cut short by illness or suicide, but whose words live on.
