Summary

In his quest to find an indigenous American Islam, Michael Muhammad Knight has travelled 20,000 miles in 60 days, squatted in run-down mosques, pursued Muslim romance, been detained at the US/Canadian border and plenty more. In the course of his adventures, Knight sorts out his own relationship to Islam as he journeys from punk provocateur to a recognised voice in the community and watches first-hand the collapse of a liberal Islamic dream. The result is this semi-autobiographical book, chronicling the compellingly multi-faceted landscape of American Islam.
