      Wznowienie bestsellerowej książki, sprzedanej w milionach egzemplarzy na całym świecie. Autentyczna historia Amerykanki uwięzionej w islamskim świecie przez męża tyrana. Rzucona w zupełnie obce środowisko, otoczona przez nieżyczliwą rodzinę męża, w końcu zupełnie pozbawiona prawa decydowania o sobie, rozpaczliwie pr�buje wydostać się z Teheranu. Jednak o ile zorganizowanie jej ucieczki jest bardzo ryzykowne, o tyle ucieczka razem z czteroletnią dziewczynką graniczy z cudem. A to jedno kobieta wie na pewno - nie może zostawić c�rki samej.

      In this sequel to Not Without My Daughter , Betty Mahmoody describes her cultural readjustment to America, her constant fear of her husband's revenge, and her frustration with a legal system unable to offer her protection--but the story is not hers alone. Mahmoody describes her many encounters with others who have tried to escape similar situations, telling their dramatic stories with the sensitivity of one who knows only too well what they've been through and how far they still have to go. For The Love of a Child is a thrilling adventure with a vitally important message.

    • Zana Muhsen, born and bred in Birmingham, is of Yemeni origin. When her father told her she was to spend a holiday with relatives in North Yemen, she jumped at the chance. Aged 15 and 13 respectively, Zana and her sister discovered that they had been literally sold into marriage, and that on their arrival they were virtually prisoners. They had to adapt to a completely alien way of life, with no running water, dung-plastered walls, frequent beatings, and the ordeal of childbirth on bare floors with only old women in attendance. After eight years of misery and humiliation Zana succeeded in escaping, but her sister is still there, and it seems likely that she will now never leave the country where she has spent more than half her life. This is an updated edition of Zana's account of her experiences.
