This was a really interesting book...it is the true story of Harisi Ali. She was raised in a strict Muslim family and because she was female, had no voice, no opinion, no say in what happened in her life...which included beatings, female mutilation, and an arranged marriage. (Seriously, so glad I wasn't born Muslim!) She defied her family, her religion, and her culture, and escaped this way of life. To all my feminists out there...you actually may NOT want to read this. It will make you so mad (and hate men even more :) Seriously though, fascinating book!
