Safa: Die Rettung der kleinen Wüstenblume
This book is a very interesting and easy read, though at times the wording is slightly awkward - probably a translation issue. It told me a lot that I didn't already know about the prevailing culture in the areas where FGM is rife - I had not realised that this was a problem amongst the Kurds nor had I realised that it affected Christian groups in Africa as well as Muslim groups, though I probably should have done, as I knew that it is culturally based rather than religion based.

Commentary During Books Safa: Die Rettung der kleinen Wüstenblume
Die kleine Safa Idriss Noura aus Somalia spielt in der Verfilmung des Weltbestsellers »Wüstenblume« die dreijährige Waris Dirie. Die dramatische Szene, in der das kleine Mädchen gewaltsam beschnitten wird, bringt die Menschen in den Kinos zum Weinen. Als Waris Dirie Safa zum ersten Mal erblickt, fühlt sie sich schmerzlich an ihre eigene Kindheit erinnert. Umso größer ist Waris‘ Bestürzung, als sie erfährt, dass der Eingriff unmittelbar bevorsteht. Und sie beschließt: Dieses kleine Mädchen muss vor der Genitalverstümmelung geschützt werden. Sie tut alles, um Safa vor diesem Schicksal zu bewahren.Describe Based On Books Safa: Die Rettung der kleinen Wüstenblume
