This is the story of Fawzia Koofi, the woman who could have become president of Afghanistan. The woman who had to seek political asylum when the Taliban took power. The woman who refused to be silenced despite two assassination attempts.
Politician, diplomat, feminist, author and, above all, mother, Koofi is courage incarnate, fighting with all her might for freedom. She has made it her life's goal to stand up for the most vulnerable.
Her memoirs offer a unique perspective on the failures of the country’s occupation as well as those of her fellow Afghan politicians.
This is a story that transcends Afghanistan.
A call to girls and women the world over to dare to dream and fight for change.
