"I'm a simple village girl who has always obeyed the orders of my
father and brothers. Since forever, I have learned to say yes to
everything. Today I have decided to say no."
Nujood Ali's childhood came to an abrupt end in 2008 when her
father arranged for her to be married to a man three times her age.
With harrowing directness, Nujood tells of abuse at her husband's
hands and of her daring escape. With the help of local advocates
and the press, Nujood obtained her freedom--an extraordinary
achievement in Yemen, where almost half of all girls are married
under the legal age. Nujood's courageous defiance of both Yemeni
customs and her own family has inspired other young girls in the
Middle East to challenge their marriages. Hers is an unforgettable
story of tragedy, triumph, and courage.
