The Beauty of Your Face: One Woman's Life in a Nation at Odds with Its Ideals
Description:
A profound and poignant exploration of one womans life in a nation at odds with its ideals.
Afaf Rahman, the daughter of Palestinian immigrants, is the principal of Nurrideen School for Girls, a Muslim school in the Chicago suburbs. One morning, a shooter―radicalized by the online alt-right―attacks the school.
As Afaf listens to his terrifying progress, we are swept back through her memories: the bigotry she faced as a child, her mothers dreams of returning to Palestine, and the devastating disappearance of her older sister that tore her family apart. Still, there is the sweetness of the music from her fathers oud, and the hope and community Afaf finally finds in Islam.
