When people say that Zainab Fawwaz shone in a period of darkness, they seem to forget that other women authors appeared in her time: Aisha Taimour, the Egyptian poet with whom Zainab corresponded and to whom she presented her book of biography, "Ad-Dourr al-Manthour fi Tabaqat Rabbat el-Khudur." Warda al Yazigi, the Lebanese poet; Warda el-Turk; and others.
