      ab: The article examines the value of female voice and authority in contemporary women's writing focusing on the short fiction of Alifa Rifaat. Topics include the authors' contention that the silence of women in Rifaat's short fiction can be read as a normative practice of linguistic expression and resistance, their thoughts that this women's silence is not treated as a physical marker of social exclusion in Rifaat's work and views on the prevalent convention of silence in Middle Eastern culture.
