“Fatima and her Sisters” by Dorothy Van Ess

Front Cover of “Fatima and her Sisters”

The front cover of “Fatima and her Sisters” has a minimalist depiction of two veiled women walking through orange sand with books over their heads. The sky is blue and the scene is encased in the shape of a traditional mosque's doorframe. Above the women in the blue sky is the author's name and book title. The author's name is in a black sans serif script while the title of the book is in a white faux Arabic script. In the sand is the subtitle which reads "A fascinating view of the vanished and romantic world of Arab women in the era of the veil." The subtitle is in sans serif black capital letters. Surrounding the depiction is an orange background with white hexagons and triangles. The lower quarter of the book cover has the orange background change to blue and the white shapes change to black.
