Infidel: My Life by Ayaan Hirsi Ali

A journey through faith, freedom and reinvention

Good Condition – light cover wear with visible spotting to page edges.

Infidel is Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s account of a life shaped by migration, religion, conflict and an uncompromising search for personal freedom. Born in Somalia and raised across Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and Kenya, she describes a strict Muslim upbringing, political upheaval and the family expectations that defined her early years. After fleeing an arranged marriage and seeking asylum in the Netherlands, Hirsi Ali learned Dutch, studied political science and entered public life, eventually becoming a member of parliament. Her outspoken criticism of aspects of Islam and collaboration with filmmaker Theo van Gogh brought international attention, fierce controversy and serious threats. Direct and provocative, this memoir traces her movement between cultures and convictions while exploring identity, women’s rights, belief and the cost of speaking publicly against ideas once accepted as unquestionable.
