“I found an inner strength to fight for myself. It was clear that nobody else would.”
Tehmina Durrani“...my mind was consumed with the idea of purdah. From behind it no call for help could be heard. An abandoned species was trapped in a forbidden world. Everything corrupt happened under the shroud, when it was off a faceless and nameless woman appeared.”
Tehmina Durrani, Blasphemy“I obeyed, but my crime was that I did not look obedient.”
Tehmina Durrani, My Feudal Lord“Looking back, I realized that we were being raised to be schizophrenic; an appearance of perfection was more important than genuine feelings”
Tehmina Durrani, My Feudal Lord“There will be a great imbalance in our strengths if we fight, because I am prepared to die and you are desperate to live.”
Tehmina Durrani, My Feudal Lord“My mind became a sanctuary for secret thoughts of escaping from this household.”
Tehmina Durrani, My Feudal Lord“I found an inner strength to fight for myself. It was clear that nobody else would.”
