In the Sultanate of Oman, almost dead center of the southern shore of the Arabian Peninsula where the smell of frankincense is omnipresent, I came across a royal medallion which expanded my dimensions and perceptions. This medallion, unsuitable for wearing due to its large size, forms the basis of stories and portraits about a diverse society in constant transformation. These stories and portraits about changes in form or appearance, about internal shifts that align you with yourself, and/or of skill areas that need to be examined or changed, became, in their own way... Medallions of Transformation.
While writing my books "the DNA of Salalah-Dhofar" and "Treasure Chest Salalah-Dhofar" about the Sultanate of Oman, a lot of other stories came to me. Mainly stories from women... Perhaps because of the simple fact that I am a woman too. Their thoughts, achievements and dreams became the backbone for "Whispers of Oman." In the chapter "Reading as a way out," for example, Amna explains how she dealt with injustice done to her in her youth. The stories of Naifa and Dr. Aida give an insight in the way how the modernization of the country took place in 1970. Raya, who is diagnosed with cancer explains the role of her believe in coping with her disease. There is the statement of Sara, a student who explains why playing theatre is so important for her personal development. With 38 portraits and photos, "Whispers of Oman" in the Arabian Peninsula is an inspirational book, mainly about women who took the opportunities their country offered to develop their skills and peruse the things they were good at. "Whispers of Oman" is a tribute to these women their achievements.
“A character envisioned through reality placed in a boundless realm containing realistic choices and consequences. Our world mirrored and turned fictitious. Or is it not? Imagine the human race and its religious ties, lest you forget its figures, come alive, and either terrorize or mend the world. Through the eyes of one person-- a person who has such gall and bravery to defend the world; with an insurmountable task forced on or chosen to endeavor, would you stand up for the human races’ survival? Or would you tear it down with the knowledge and power obtained? Many will scorn you, and many will applaud. Though, this time, you will watch the chaos unfold.”

This work details the early construction of the Qabusid state in the 1970s-1980s, emphasizing the interplay between personalities and the process of institutionalization. The narrative continues to the present demonstrating the resilience of the Qaboosid system.
In a dynasty founded on duty and honour where does a sinner belong? Her mother was a legendary actress who gave up her career to follow the man she loved. Her father leads a country where powerful forces are determined to overthrow him. Burdened by the guilt of a long-ago sin, Noella de Bartez no longer feels she has a rightful place in her family. Wilful and rebellious, she rejects the land of her birth for the temptations of Paris and London. There, her uncanny likeness to her mother opens doors to high society but also entraps her in a decadence capable of destroying all her father has worked for. Then, a single shattering event changes everything.

This book explores how there is latitude for people to make their own choices and how the chances to assert independence change over time in a Muslim, Arab, tribal culture. The book first gives a brief overview of day-to-day life in the Dhofar region of southern Oman, then focuses on how the traits of self-control and self-respect are linked in the everyday actions of several groups of tribes who speak Gibali (Jibbali, also known as Shari/Śḥeret), a non-written, Modern South Arabian language. Although no work can express the totality of a culture, this text describes how Gibalis are constantly shifting between preserving autonomy and signaling membership in family, tribal, and national communities. The work reflects observations and conclusions from over ten years of research into the history and culture of the Dhofar region along with longstanding, deep involvement with both men and women in the Gibali community.
