"Infidel" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Diesel Cafe (map)

Selected By: Sue Clever

Let's meet to discuss the book "Infidel" by Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

Really cool... the book includes a reading group guide.

Here's the summary from Wikipedia:
"Hirsi Ali writes about her youth in Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and Kenya, about her flight to the Netherlands where she applied for political asylum, her university experience in Leiden, her work for the Labour Party, her transfer to the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy, her election to Parliament, and the murder of Theo van Gogh, with whom she made the film Submission. The book ends with the controversy regarding her citizenship, which helped bring down the Dutch government."

We'll follow the reading group guide that comes with the book.
