Her story is the story of Kurdistan, the story of Kurdish women, the story of Middle Eastern women. A story that renews itself with the consciousness of freedom' -- Cigdem Dogu, coordination of Kurdistan Women's Communities KJK 'A brilliant, passionate girl who discovers Kurdish politics in high school and flees her family, determined to become a revolutionary instead of a housewife - A riveting, inspiring book' -- Meredith Tax, feminist activist and author of A Road Unforeseen: Women Fight the Islamic State (2016) 'Sakine Cansiz was a true pioneer and one of the founders of a political movement whose story is far from over and whose latest chapters we witness unfolding in today's events in Turkey and Syria.
