Surprise surprise - By: Gobby, 03 Jun 2008 
Surprisingly, Muslims don't like this book.....
Seriously, this is an excellent read. Some chapters are a bit hard going, but the conclusions they come to make it worth the slog. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a woman to be admired for her intellect & her courage. Muslims hate this book because they fear it. They fear it because it may cause them to question aspects of their religion, & their religion (which they must neither question nor leave, on pain of death) will only take a few holes pokedin it before it's revealed as a tissue paper facade.
The whole book is brilliant, & the highlight is the screenplay for the film that got van Gogh murdered by a frightened Muslim.
Thank you Ayaan for sharing this with us.
no stars awful read definately do not read - By: peepee, 02 May 2008 
comes across as authors personal grudge against islam, recommend the islamist by ed husain a more liberal & broad minded book on islam that challenges western distortions & misunderstandings of the religionin a highly commendable manner as well as the british born authors personal interior journey through islam by visiting different muslim countries suitable for muslims & non muslims alike very easy to read & understand
Excellent, simply and honeslty - By: J. Morris, 29 Mar 2008 
Forget the 1 star reviews, these are just the expected views of Muslims who like to keep their womanin an oppressive world, you should be ashamed!
Islamophobia is a myth, get over it!

Don't Bother - By: Mr. Ron Newman, 14 Mar 2008 
I first read this author's later book, 'Infidel', first. That is one of the best books I have read. Beautifully written, amazing & informative.
So, I got this book, 'Caged Virgin'. Don't bother. Compared with the later book it is inexpertly written, boring & repetitive.
However, the author is an amazing person.
