Synopsis: |
Zainab later agreed to a marriage in America arranged by her mother, unaware that it was to save her from Saddam's growing affection. She found herself wed to an abusive stranger and fled. Stranded by the Gulf War, she put her life together again in the States, creating a global organisation to fight on behalf of female victims of war. Only when Alia was dying did Salbi realise that she had gone to war zones around the world asking other women for answers her mother had all along. This is a riveting quest for truth that explores the universal themes of power, fear and sexual subjugation. |
