Daring to Drive: A Saudi Woman's Awakening
Description
In this gripping memoir, a Saudi woman recounts the personal and political journey that led her to challenge the ban on women driving in Saudi Arabia. From a conservative upbringing and early encounters with religious restrictions to her emergence as a prominent advocate for women’s rights, she reveals the risks, conflicts, and revelations behind an act of everyday independence. Both intimate and courageous, the book explores freedom, faith, identity, technology, and the power of ordinary people to spark social change. It offers a compelling portrait of one woman’s awakening—and a pivotal moment in the struggle for equality.
