by Aman Janice Boddy and Virginia Lee Barnes (9780747520221)

The daughter of tribal leaders, Aman recounts her dramatic life with stark simplicity and winning candour: an innocent child-hood romance with a white boy that leads to murder; her circumcision 'ceremony'; an uwanted marriage at the age of thirteen; and her daring escape to the city where her beauty and curiosity lead her into a world of white men, parties and runaway girls.

Aman takes the reader beyond the headlines of a wartorn country to tell the true story of what life is like for a woman in Somalia.
