Beyond The Veil is the title of the supernatural themed story created by writer and illustrator Rick Law.
A contemporary fantasy, Beyond The Veil follows a male character (whose appearance is speculated to be based on the artist) who, after finding a pair of rose colored glasses, proceeds to "see things"; experiencing visions and other manifestations that may be related to the end of the world.
The visions progress, and the character struggles with his new foreknowledge and (as he starts to experience the phenomena outside of wearing the glasses) the question of whether this "sight" is a product of the glasses, or if they are merely a catalyst for his new "vision".

 PBS Online: Beyond the Veil - FAQs
The goal of "Beyond The Veil" was to get beyond these stereotypes and explore, through a dialogue between two women, some of the cultural and political differences which have kept Iran and America at odds for almost 20 years.
Observing "hejab" (the term for veiling) can be done either by wearing a one-piece cloak or tent (called "chador" in Persian), or a scarf to cover their hairs and a long dress (called "manto" in Persian, taken from the French word "manteau").
There it is up to a woman, or the household social code, to determine how she will appear, and it's normal for westernized Iranian women to dress in western fashions.

 Fatema Mernissi
Sexual inequality is a prominent feature of both Western and Islamic societies, but underlying concepts of female sexuality in Christian and Muslim traditions are very different, and the pattern of heterosexual relation in Muslim countries is probably unique.
In "Beyond the Veil" Fatima Mernissi argues that the Islamic view of women as active sexual beings resulted in stricter regulation and control of women's sexuality, which Muslim theorists classically regarded as a threat to civilized society.
Drawing on popular source materials, Mernissi explores the disorienting effects of modern life on male-female relations, looks at the male-female unit as a basic element of the structure of the Muslim system, and shows us the sexual dynamics of the Muslim world.

She died of old age in her nineties, outliving her husband and one of her sons, after having helped her husband tame the wilderness of four frontier communities.

Now this "voice in my blood" is a very real one to me. I find myself measuring my character against hers, hoping that when the day comes that we meet, that I will be worthy of this extraordinary heritage and even more extraordinary relationship.
