Opis
When she was fourteen, Jasvinder Sanghera was shown a photo of the man chosen to be her husband. She was terrified. She`d witnessed the torment her sisters endured in their arranged marriages, so she ran away from home, grief-stricken when her parents disowned her.Shame is the heart-rending true story of a young girl`s attempt to escape from a cruel, claustrophobic world where family honour mattered more than anything - sometimes more than life itself. Jasvinder`s story is one of terrible oppression, a harrowing struggle against a punitive code of honour - and, finally, triumph over adversity.
