"Like any teenager, I had modest career aspirations. In my case, I would take singing lessons in order to develop my somewhat decent singing voice, before proceeding on to an illustrious career in musical theatre. My ‘Everest’ was to play Christine in Phantom of the Opera, though being the reasonable character that I am, Maria in West Side Story would have kept me equally satisfied. The only real, and I suppose rather significant, dent in the plan was that I was growing up Muslim."

The Incidental Muslim is an honest, witty and heartfelt collection of columns and new musings by writer Amal Awad on growing up in Australia as a hybrid identity, with a look at career, life, love, feminism and her love of storytelling (even though Hollywood just can’t get their portrayals of Muslims right).
