Reviews

'An angry and personal memoir' - Daily Telegraph

'An understated gem of a book … gripping' - The Spectator

'Marwa al-Sabouni writes with clarity and conviction' - The Times

'The moving record of one person’s effort to stay loyal to her homeland, at a time of great suffering and personal distress. It tells a painful and tragic story. But it is also the expression of a beautiful soul, who comes to us out of a confused and dreadful battle with a message of hope' - Roger Scruton
