No sin mi hija es la historia real, relatada de un modo conmovedor, del interminable y arduo calvario de una mujer en su lucha por preservar uno de los derechos fundamentales del ser humano: la libertad. Una aventura extraordinaria, un relato apasionante y aterrador que demuestra el insólito valor de su autora. "Taraf is the Iranian conversational custom of making polite but vacant offers.” Not Without My Daughter by Betty Mahmoody This was a really harrowing read. Reading it, I could not get over Betty's courage and how frightened and alone she must have felt. It's a page turner and is unputdownable. I also liked very much how Betty detailed the kindness of the people involved in helping her. The actual escape itself is nail biting. I also saw this movie but did not care for it. The book is way more powerful. I am glad Betty and her daughter made it out safely. This was a great read and I would recommend it to anyone interested in Betty's story. I was moved by the racism, sexism and nationalism portrayed in Betty Mahmoody's book. I had to wonder, given the timing of the publication, if there weren't hidden motives in the extremism of the anti Islamic "behavior" towards the United States. Certainly, any situation where a mother and daughter automatically lose their human rights just by crossing a border is extremely worrisome. I was left with much research to do about the actual data of Americans in Middle Eastern countries. A well written book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
