About this product

Product Information

Hannah Shah was an imam's daughter who, along with her brothers and sisters, lived the life of a devout family of Muslims in the North of England. But behind the front door, for many years, her father was seriously abusing her in the cellar of their home. t 16 she discovered a plan to send her to Pakistan for an arranged marriage, and she ran away. Continuously hunted by her angry father and brothers who were intent on making her an honour killing, she had to keep moving house in order to escape them, and complete her education. orst of all, from her family's point of view, she converted to Christianity and eventually found freedom in the anonymity of the south of England - to live (and marry) as she wished, and to be free of the shame of her childhood. ffering a revealing look at the lifestyle and beliefs of a certain kind of traditional Muslim family in Britain today, The Imam's Daughter is also the inspiring story of Hannah Shah. How, through her courage and tenacity, she broke away from her background and embraced a new, more open-minded life in the world beyond its confines.
