Written with complete conviction from a woman's point of view, Nuruddin Farah's spare, shocking first novel savagely attacks the traditional values of his people yet is also a haunting celebration of the unbroken human spirit. Ebla, an orphan of eighteen, runs away from her nomadic encampment in rural Somalia when she discovers that her grandfather has promised her in marriage to an older man. But even after her escape to Mogadishu, she finds herself as powerless and dependent on men as she was out in the bush. As she is propelled through servitude, marriage, poverty, and violence, Ebla has to fight to retain her identity in a world where women are "sold like cattle."Binding Type: Paperback

Beautiful Jewelry Storage
Color: White
A lovely jewelry box! Definitely worth the price. I love the little mirror inside, because it is useful when putting on my earrings. I do wish that one of the drawers was divided into smaller sections for bracelet storage, but overall the storage is amazing. Love the hooks for necklaces and the ring storage. It’s very pretty with the pink lining. Gorgeous for any space, and would make a lovely gift
