Moon Charania explores feminine dispossession and the brown diaspora through a reflection on the life of her mother, recovering otherwise silenced modes of brown mothers' survival, disobedience and meaning-making that are often only lived out in invisible, intimate spaces.

This series of absorbing case studies focuses on the portrayal of Pakistani women in the global media. Analyzing Hollywood films, British documentaries, newspapers and mainstream U.S. magazines, the book traces sensational female figures of Pakistan--all of whom have been subject to patriarchal violence--highlighting the imagery of exploitation and eroticism. The author addresses questions of spectatorship and fetishism in the age of globalization and the racial and imperial politics of liberal feminism.
