Reviews

'A captivating read. Manal al-Sharif refuses to hide her scars, unveiling what she endured and sacrificed to become a professional who has fearlessly pushed the boundaries of tradition.' -- Elena Gorokhova, author of Russian Tattoo 'Manal is no Chanel-draped, chauffeur-driven Saudi princess. Her account of why a single working mother's life compelled her to confront the kingdom's fiercely patriarchal ways is touching and revealing in equal measure. This is such an astonishing, humble, truthful book, more illuminating than a hundred newspaper stories on Saudi Arabia.' -- Azadeh Moaveni, author of Lipstick Jihad 'Future generations will marvel at Manal al-Sharif, whose voice is laden with quiet dignity even at its most urgent. Her gripping account of homegrown courage will speak to the fighter in all of us. Books like this one can change the world.' -- Deborah Feldman, New York Times bestselling author of Unorthodox
