        			"Marie Grace Brown completely reorients the history of Sudan. Exploring the nationalism and the political acumen of northern Sudanese women, she adds important, original insights of the gendered history of Africa and the Middle East―Sudan's demographic presence in both is huge―by politicizing the manufacture, design and consumption of clothing. Deeply researched and gracefully written, Khartoum at Night is a brilliant work." Author: Eve M. Troutt Powell Source: University of Pennsylvania"This fascinating book advances African gender history by breaking new ground for the study of bodies and dress. In Marie Grace Brown's superb analysis, the tobe not only serves as a leitmotif of women's quest for spatial and public mobility but unfolds as an archive of their worldviews. Khartoum at Night will captivate the reader, and it's highly recommended for the classroom!" Author: Stephan F. Miescher Source: University of California, Santa Barbara"Marie Grace Brown's beautifully written monograph, Khartoum At Night: Fashion and Body Politics in Imperial Sudan, is a history of northern Sudanese women's bodies in motion during the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium (1899-1956). In the first English-language monograph to focus on women as actors in Sudanese history, Brown nimbly weaves the quotidian movements of Sudanese women back into a historiographical tapestry that has previously kept them "fixed at home," unconnected to the political world around them....Brown's exceptional analytical insights and flawless writing made writing a review that captured the book's kinetic energy a truly difficult task. This book will make an excellent addition to undergraduate and graduate courses in a range of fields, including but not limited to the history of the modern Middle East, North Africa, and East Africa; women's and gender studies, material culture and body history; and the history of imperialism and colonialism."
