Through multiple readings of women's writings, as well as critical studies that varied between short stories and novels, and dealt with the Arabic narrative by women writers from Egypt, Sudan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and others, the reader can get to know the position of the book's author, critic Rabie Muftah, regarding the concept of women's literature and men's literature. He asserts, "I do not confiscate him in forming his vision. Each person has his own position, each reading, and the point of view differs from one reader to another. And by reader here I mean male and female. This is a basic pillar of the aesthetics of reception. The authority now is the authority of the reader and not the authority of the author or the text, and the reader - indeed - is an essential partner in the creative process and has a role in creating the meaning, and thus the interpretations multiply with the multiplicity of readings." The geographical diversity within the framework of the single Arab family in these studies is not the only diversity, but there is another kind of diversity, which is the idea of generation. Women writers are from different generations, and the reader will find more than one study in the creations of one writer.
