Infidel

Description

Infidel is the internationally acclaimed memoir of Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali-born woman who escaped an arranged marriage, sought asylum in the Netherlands, and later became a prominent critic of Islam and advocate for women’s rights.
With raw honesty, Hirsi Ali recounts her upbringing in Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and Kenya, navigating a strict interpretation of Islam, violence, and repression. Her journey to the West led to a dramatic transformation—from devout Muslim to outspoken reformer and secularist.
This book is both a personal story of courage and a controversial critique of cultural practices and religious doctrine. Infidel explores themes of identity, faith, feminism, and freedom of expression, making it both compelling and polarizing.
