A heartfelt honest story of her life, both terrible and wonderful. Its a wonderful story of a very strong woman who is a survivor and very intelligent. Its told from the heart and the author does not hold back. Very heartwarming touching to read.

The stories themselves are interesting, but there isn't much depth to them. She just kind of skims the surface of each event and then moves on to the next. Also, the timeline seems a bit inconsistent, so it's unclear where she was and what events were happening at any given time. This also causes interruptions in the narrative since she jumps around instead of following a chronological timeline.

The adage truth is stranger than fiction definitely holds for this really very fascinating memoir. The author is extremely bright and articulate, not just in describing the emotional pain and happiness she has suffered/enjoyed but also in documenting her emotional and educational growth. Anyone who is interested in women, their journeys and the struggles of women throughout the world will find this book exciting!
