Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The many vicissitudes in Norah’s story possess an empowering impudence which leads to believe that, despite the prevailing fundamentalism in some countries, the new generation of Muslim women will not be silently crushed and humiliated as were its predecessors. Norah’s undaunted strength and hope for a brighter future are characteristics which somehow prevail in those whose destinies are held captive by perpetrators who use religion and sacred scriptures as an excuse to torment their victims at will. This book recalls some events found in Samia Shariff’s notorious Veil of Fear, published in 2006 by les Éditions JCL, yet Samia Shariff’s daughter, Norah, offers the insightful perspective of a young girl with many qualities. Norah’s Secrets paints a vivid picture of this strong-willed and determined girl who reveals secrets which impact events told in her mother’s book.
