Between Two Worlds: Escape from Tyranny: Growing Up in the Shadow of Saddam Paperback - 2006
by Zainab Salbi; Laurie Becklund
The highly anticipated memoir from the daughter of Saddam Hussein's personal pilot is an unforgettable story of survival, strength, and one woman's struggle against tyranny.
Summary
In this richly visual memoir, Salbi describes tyranny as she saw it - through the eyes of a privileged child, a rebellious teenager, a violated wife, and ultimately a public figure fighting to overcome the skill that once kept her alive: silence.
Between Two Worlds is a riveting quest for truth that deepens our understanding of the universal themes of power, fear, sexual subjugation, and the question one generation asks the one before it: How could you have let this happen to us?
First line
MY MOTHER GREW up in a grand house, with a courtyard and sixteen rooms, on the Tigris River.
