Honoured

This is the story of a woman who grew up in circumstances few could imagine. Her father left the family for a teenage neighbour. At twelve, she was sent to live in Pakistan. By fifteen, she was in a forced marriage. Her mother, after years of abuse, killed the man who had violated her. But this is not a misery memoir. Honoured is the unflinching account of a young British Muslim woman coming of age against the odds. A story of survival, resilience and political awakening, it charts the making of an activist determined to speak out, stand up and claim space in a world that rarely offers it.
