Synopsis
Souad was a 17-year-old woman living in a small village in Jordan when she made the mistake of falling in love--"an event that would lead to unspeakable acts of violence and a lifetime of exile from her homeland. Desperate to leave her abusive childhood behind, Souad begins a relationship with a neighbor--"one that would leave her pregnant, and her family shamed. Now, Souad faces the only punishment her society deems acceptable death. Her survival of her family's attempt to kill her, leaving her with burns over 70% of her body, her dramatic escape, and her resolve to build a new life is a tale of heartbreaking drama and remarkable courage., A 17-year-old girl from Jordan beats the odds and lives to tell the tale of her family's attempt to kill her after she shames them by becoming pregnant., When Souad was seventeen she fell in love. In her West Bank village, as in so many others, sex before marriage is considered a grave dishonor to one's family and is punishable by death. This was her crime. Her brother-in-law was given the task of meting out her punishment. One morning while Souad was washing the family's clothes, he poured gasoline over her and set her on fire. Miraculously, she survived, rescued by women of her village, who put out the flames and took her to a local hospital. Horribly burned over seventy percent of her body and still denounced by her family, Souad was able to receive the care she needed only after the intervention of a European aid worker. Now in permanent exile from her homeland, she has decided to tell her story and reveal the barbarity of a practice that continues to this day. Burned Alive ...is the first true account ever published by a victim of an "honor crime." Souad's inspiring testimony is a shocking, moving, and harrowing story of cruelty and incomparable courage...and an inspiring call to action to end a heinous tradition.

  • Wow! This is an excellent book, read on to find out why

    The reason I rated this book the way that I did is simple. It's fantasitc I don't think I've ever read a book like it, it really keeps you on edge and in complete aww... The only thing I did not like is that it really angers you while your reading which should tell you how completly captivated you get as you read. It's really a great book to read if you are like me and didn't know things of this nature really take place or you like reading books about survivors. It is truly an eye opener, and a book you will want to read from beginning to end the same day. Another thing that is really great about this book is that it's not incredibly long yet really descriptive in telling what certain things may look like in a way that makes it so easy to visualize. I really suggest everyone read this book ...
