By Nujood Ali and
Delphine Minoui
Nujood Ali's childhood came to an abrupt
end in 2008 when her father arranged for her to be married to a man three
times her age. With harrowing directness, Nujood tells of abuse at her
husband's hands and of her daring escape. With the help of local advocates
and the press, Nujood obtained her freedom—an extraordinary achievement in
Yemen, where almost half of all girls are married under the legal age.
Nujood's courageous defiance of both Yemeni customs and her own family has
inspired other young girls in the Middle East to challenge their marriages.
Hers is an unforgettable story of tragedy, triumph and courage. |
