I am here for the dark humour

Dr. Nadia Amin is an academic who wrote an article on the possibility of rehabilitating ISIS brides, from this article she was offered a job by the UN to actually make the article a reality. Running from a heartbreak and being tired of academic Dr. Amin finds herself in Iraq trying to put together a programme for the ISIS brides. She is way out of her element, nothing seems to be going right and she wonders if she is built for this. Between the dust, bureaucracy and terror, she finds a bride she wants to help, but things aren’t always black and white.

Fundamentally asks bold questions: Who can tell someone what to believe? And how do you save someone who doesn’t want to be saved?

I had so much fun reading this one. I think the author did a great job of walking the line of dark humour and creating awareness for real problems. I did laugh out loud at certain points, a very good read.
