A silent Woman Speaks Up is considered the outcome of more than forty years of Upper Egyptian life. Such life is characterised by restrictions and oppression due to old traditions that cause women to suffer. The book contains fifty poems. Most of these poems show how women are fighting to gain their human rights. Poems were written in symbolic language as a rejection of a man-based society and a direct call for immediate change to realise equality. That's why you find symbolic language is greatly spread over her writings. Quite simply the rhyme scheme was just like the world was around over there.
