When Yasmin accuses her husband of cheating, he lashes out in denial and moves out of their family home. Despite the separation, Yasmin sets off with her children on a preplanned family trip to Jordan, leaving her husband, Maher, behind.
While traveling, Yasmin resolves to secure financial independence from her husband. Her plans, however, are turned upside down when Maher shows up in Jordan to take his children away from Yasmin and turn her own family against her.
In a different country, with different cultural beliefs, Yasmin struggles to fight to get her children back and return them home safely.
An achingly poignant story of family, culture, and independence in the midst of the aftermath of 9/11, Woman in a Maze is an empowering novel about one Arab American woman determined not to let cultural barriers keep her from living her life and holding her family together.
