New York Masjid: The Mosques of New York

by Jerrilynn D. Dodds

Book Overview

Begun as a response to the 1993 WTC bombing, this now timely collection of photographs takes readers inside Muslim houses of worship, offering an insightful and unbiased account of a much-maligned and rapidly growing culture, taken in perhaps the one place in the world where all manifestations of religious adherents live and work: New York City. With 100 b/w photos, essays and interviews documenting the mosques at the centre of each NY Muslim community, this book reflects the great variety of Muslim identities living within a dense and diverse urban fabric.
