Title: Heather Raffo's 9 parts of desire
First published: 2006
Description: "A portrait of the extraordinary (and ordinary) lives of a whole cross-section of Iraqi women: a sexy painter, a radical communist, doctors, exiles, wives and lovers. This work delves into the many conflicting aspects of what it means to be a woman in the age-old war zone that is Iraq. An unusually timely meditation on the ancient, the modern and the feminine in a country overshadowed by war. '9 Parts of Desire' can be performed as a one-woman show or with a cast of three to nine women."--
