Description
Ayaan Hirsi Ali captured the world's attention with the bestselling Infidel, her compelling coming-of-age memoir. Now, in Nomad, she tells of going to America to build a new life, an ocean away from the death threats made to her by European Islamists, from the strife she had witnessed and the inner conflict she had suffered. It is the story of her physical and her emotional journey to freedom - her transition from a tribal mindset that restricts women's every thought and action to life as a free and equal citizen in an open society. Through stories of the challenges she has faced, she shows the difficulty of reconciling the contradictions of Islam with Western values.Nomad is Hirsi Ali's intellectual coming of age and it also conveys an urgent message and mission - to inform the West of the extent of the threat from Islam, both from outside and from within ouropen societies.
