Key Features

The book also discusses the broader historical and colonial context that shapes Somali women's experiences and the Somali diaspora's dynamism. It offers powerful testimonies of women's strength, their role in shaping Somaliland's recovery, and their ongoing connection to Somalia, reflecting a nuanced understanding of resilience as both individual and collective. The work has been praised for its humane approach and for giving voice to Somali women's stories, often underrepresented in literature.
