Infidel

Alice Charkes, January 7, 2013

I was fascinated to learn about this author's upbringing and the meaning of living as a devout Moslem.

I would like to nominate this book for the Puddly Award. It was a riveting story of some very difficult-to-read material. Hillebrand is a fantastic writer.
