In this graphic memoir, the beloved comics artist shares her “frank, funny” story of finding a husband as an observant Muslim woman in America (NPR Morning Edition). Chaperones, suitors, and arranged marriages aren't only reserved for the heroines of a Jane Austen novel. They're just another walk in the park for this leading lady, who is on a mission to find her leading lad. From the brilliant comics Yes, I’m Hot in This, Huda Fahmy tells the hilarious story of how she met and married her husband. Navigating mismatched suitors, gossiping aunties, and societal expectations for Muslim women, That Can Be Arranged deftly reveals to readers what it can be like to find a husband as an observant Muslim woman in the twenty-first century—offering a perceptive and personal glimpse into the sometimes sticky but ultimately rewarding balance of independent choice and tradition. Praise for the work of Huda Fahmy “Explores the complexities of identity . . . hilarious, charming.” —Kirkus Reviews “Entertaining, frequently wry.” —Publishers Weekly

Den har sine sjove og hjertevarme øjeblikke og det er fint at få et mere nuanceret indblik i den beskrevne kultur, men i sidste ende er det et pinligt reaktionært forsvar for konservative religiøse normer, forældres kontrol over børnene og arrangerede ægteskaber. Forsvaret er på ingen måde overbevisende og der er ikke én eneste side der ikke indeholder mindst et eksempel på sociale normer der er så problematiske at det skriger til himlen! Derudover er selve tegnestilen og fortællerstilen ikke bedre end som så. Ikke forfærdelige, men under middel. Budskaberne historien prøver at sende er derimod rimelig forfærdelige hvis nogen tog dem til sig.
