Dancing in the mosque : an Afghan mother's letter to her son / Homeira Qaderi.

Summary:

Heavily pregnant, Homeira Qaderi's route to the hospital in Kabul was often barricaded due to suicide explosions. Soldiers pointed their guns at her stomach, terrified she was hiding a bomb. And when she finally gave birth, the joy of her son's arrival was overshadowed by more life-threatening dangers. Dancing in the Mosque is an exquisite and inspiring memoir about one mother's unimaginable choice in the face of oppression and abuse in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.
