Summary

Joumana Haddad: Superman is Arab After the world-famous work "I Killed Scheherazade. Confessions of an Angry Arab Woman", Joumana Haddad returns to us with the new title "Superman is Arab". With a combination of verses, dynamic prose and a drinkable journalistic-essay style, Haddad successfully deconstructs some of the established myths and gender prejudices not only of the Eastern, but also of the Western cultural circle. This time, the targets were monotheism, machismo, original sin, the war of the sexes, chastity, marriage and aging, which Haddad wittily and thoughtfully calls the "disastrous inventions" of modern civilization. All these cultural constructions, like the American superhero from the title, according to Haddad, are really "inventions", "fictions", and therefore subject to change. The combination of accessible language and a series of shocking statistical data ensured the book an extremely wide readership in different milieus. We can only hope that the reflections of the Arab feminist will fall on equally fertile ground in Croatia, where this type of "feminism for everyone" is certainly very necessary. Nataša Medved, editor *** Joumana Haddad (Beirut, 1970) is a Lebanese poet, translator, journalist, performer and prominent fighter for women's rights.

He teaches at the Lebanese American University.
