Mayada, Daughter of Iraq
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
I have read other books by this writer and have been very impressed. It gives those of us here in the states an inside look into what Iraqis, especially women in the Middle East have to go through. I bought it because I could not find it at the local library, so I decided to buy it, read it, then donate it to the library so others could read this story as well. It tells of a woman that was falsly imprisoned in Iraq under the Baath party regime and her trials. This woman had even had contact with Sadaam Hussein, yet still fell prey to the horrors of false arrest. It tells of not only her torture, but the torture of the "shadow women" in cell 52. Definitely heart rending.
