Little, Brown Book Group
£15.93
This memoir is the extraordinary story of how one Iranian woman overcame enormous adversity to fight for what she truly believed and founded a major movement for women around the world with the simple removal of her hijab.
The photo of a woman standing proudly, face bare, hair blowing in the wind.
Her crime: removing her veil, or hijab, which is compulsory for women in Iran.
Masih''s self-portrait sparked ''My Stealthy Freedom'', a social media campaign that went viral.
An enlightening, intimate invitation into a little-known world, this is the extraordinary memoir of a woman who overcame poverty, prison, and exile and encourages others to do the same.
