About this deal

Nadia is a real person who suffered the worst autrocities one human being is capable of afflicting to another, yet she is not a victim. The first part is interesting and smooth sailing giving great insight into the Yazidi culture and Nadia's childhood and so you get quite a shock moving in to part 2 where she gets kidnapped. In her autobiography, activist and Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Nadia seizes and wields her own story to elevate the voice of Yazidis, capturing their history, culture, and the genocide they endured at the hands of ISIS. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.

Despite the survivors’ best efforts and Murad winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2018 for her work as a human rights activist, the world largely remains woefully unresponsive – even ignorant about the Yazidis’ plight.She is the recipient of the Vaclav Havel Human Rights Prize and the Sakharov Prize, and is the UN’s first Goodwill Ambassador for the Dignity of Survivors of Human Trafficking.

It will make you realise that if Nadia can go through what she went through, and come out the other end stronger, more empowered and resiliant then we could too. There are odd unsettling vibes from the beginning, there is hostility in several quarters but especially from Sergeant Harris Eggo but not exclusively so as there is resentment and jealousy combining with secrets and lies giving numerous disturbing signs which pervades the entire novel. Her first standalone thriller – The Shadow Man – from HarperColllins will be published on February 4, 2021.

The Last Girl is an entertaining and creepy read and if you love books like One Of Us Is Lying or Harrow Lake this will definitely be your cup of tea. Besides, he warned, the situation outside Kocho was far worse and more complicated than we imagined.

Today, Nadia's story--as a witness to the Islamic State's brutality, a survivor of rape, a refugee, a Yazidi--has forced the world to pay attention to an ongoing genocide. Hezni, one of my brothers, came home from his job as a policeman in Sinjar City and joined the other village men who loudly argued about what to do.Together with Yazda, a Yazidi rights organization, she is currently working to bring the Islamic State before the International Criminal Court on charges of genocide and crimes against humanity. Nadia Murad is an amazing superhero and a warrior Queen I have an amazing amount of respect for her. The broadcast featured Murad and Nasser, a pseudonym, showing their faces and putting all at risk of ISIS retaliation. Membership is very select and they do not fraternise with each other whist at school and carry out Fear Tests, which are like complex dares or pranks which aim to scare the living daylights out of whichever sucker is the target.
