Michael Muhammad Knight''s first novel tells the story of a fictitious group of Islamic punk-rockers - inspired by the real-life Muslim punk movement sharing its name. The word taqwacore'' is a combination of ''hardcore'' and ''taqwa'' - an Arabic term usually translated as ''piety''. Combining two worlds rarely seen together, it is a form of expression for many young Muslims growing up in the West. Both entertaining and serious, THE TAQWACORES tackles sex, drugs and rock ''n'' roll through the prism of observant, all-too-human Muslim Mohicans.''
