In this courageous memoir, Fawzia Koofi, Afghanistan's most popular female politician, gives us her first-hand account of Afghan history through the rule of the Mujahedeen and Taliban, her experiences of the Afghanistan War, and the effects of these events on the lives of women in Afghanistan. In writing Letters to My Daughters, Fawziahas created a fresh take on Afghan society and Islam, and a gripping account of a life lived under the most harrowing of circumstances.
Fawziais the nineteenth child of twenty-three in a family with seven wives. Her father was an incorruptible politician strongly attached to Afghan tradition. When he was murdered by the Mujahedeen, Fawziais illiterate mother escaped with her children and decided to send the ten-year-old Fawziato school. As the civil war raged, Fawziadodged bullets and snipers to attend class, determined to be the first person in her family to receive an education.
Fawziawent on to marry a man she loved, and they had two cherished daughters, Shohra and Shaharzad. Sadly, the arrival of the Taliban spelled an end to Fawzia's freedom. Outraged and deeply saddened by the injustice she saw around her, and by the tainting of her Islamic faith, she discovered politics for herself, following in her father's footsteps. Tragically, this choice has lead to security threats to her life by Islamic extremists. Thus, Letters to My Daughtersis not only a record of her life, but also acts as a literal letter through which Fawzia can pass on her wisdom about justice and dignity to her daughters, not knowing for how long she will survive such attacks.
Fawzia Koofi is Afghanistan's first female Parliament speaker and a noted activist for women and children’s rights. Her forthcoming book THE FAVORED DAUGHTER will be released January 3rd, 2012 by Palgrave.
Koofi is currently a leading candidate for the presidential elections in 2014 and has been quoted by the BBC, Time, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, CNN, The Globe and Mail, and many others. Koofi was selected as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in 2009. Before getting elected to Parliament, Koofi was employed by UNICEF as a child protection officer from 2002 through 2004.

評分纔看瞭一封信,就覺得好震撼。一個女子,有著比這世界上百分之九十九的男子都剛毅與堅定的心。是自貝布托《東方的女兒》後看過的最充滿力量的書。
笔记: 1、我希望你们记住:你要打发上门求助的人们,你根本不知道什么时候也需要他们的帮助。 2、对一个女人来说,或许最糟糕的莫过于迷失了自己。如果不能清楚地认识自己,没有任何梦想,那么这才是女人最大的损失。 3、这些孩子,包括所有的孩子都是有价值的。只要接受适当...
評分人本主义心理学家Maslow认为,人的需要可分为5个层次,分别是生理的需要、安全的需要、归属与爱的需要、尊重的需要和自我实现的需要。这些需要的水平渐次提高,低层次的需要基本满足后人才会开始追求高层次的需要。中国老话也说:仓廪实而知礼节,衣食足而知荣辱。无外乎是...
評分法齐娅的一生就是个传奇,这本书揭露了阿富汗极端主义的丑陋面目,对于他父亲对他母亲的家暴如果我是作者绝不会还在此书赞扬自己的父亲,为了多娶一个老婆竟然可以休掉自己大老婆,可见阿富汗男人把自己的欲望看的多至高无上,还有因为母亲没有把饭粒分开而被施暴,我真心佩服...
評分我对于阿富汗的认识和关注几乎就是从卡勒德•胡赛尼的小说开始的,从《追风筝的人》里阿富汗男人的救赎,到《灿烂千阳》里阿富汗女人的命运,这个国家贫穷、悲惨、沉重,对待女性尤其残酷,甚至惨不忍睹。记得刚读完《灿烂千阳》的那些日子里,跟朋友聊天经常时不是会说起,...
