Radwa Ashour wrote Arabic fiction, memoir and criticism about colonialism, exile, family and historical memory. Granada begins a trilogy set after the fall of Muslim Granada in 1492, following a family as forced conversion, surveillance and cultural suppression reshape daily life across generations. The Woman from Tantoura traces a Palestinian woman's life through displacement, war and family separation, using personal memory to connect major events from 1948 onward. Ashour also wrote memoir and literary criticism, including work reflecting on illness, travel and intellectual life. Her fiction is historically grounded and character-led, often showing political transformation through domestic routines, language and family continuity. Granada is the central entry for readers of historical fiction about al-Andalus and forced assimilation, while The Woman from Tantoura suits those interested in Palestinian displacement and twentieth-century history.
