Once Upon an Eid

Once Upon an Eid

Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow
4.2/5 ( ratings)
Once Upon an Eid is a collection of short stories that showcases the most brilliant Muslim voices writing today, all about the most joyful holiday of the year: Eid!

Eid: The short, single-syllable word conjures up a variety of feelings and memories for Muslims. Maybe it’s waking up to the sound of frying samosas or the comfort of bean pie, maybe it’s the pleasure of putting on a new outfit for Eid prayers, or maybe it’s the gift-giving and holiday parties to come that day. Whatever it may be, for those who cherish this day of celebration, the emotional responses may be summed up in another short and sweet word: joy. The anthology will also include a poem, graphic-novel chapter, and spot illustrations.

The full list of Once Upon an Eid contributors include: G. Willow Wilson , Hena Khan , N. H. Senzai , Hanna Alkaf , Rukhsana Khan , Randa Abdel-Fattah , Ashley Franklin , Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow , Candice Montgomery , Huda Al-Marashi , Ayesha Mattu, Asmaa Hussein, and Sara Alfageeh.
