Social Science, The Girl Who Beat ISIS, In August 2014, Farida, like any ordinary teenage girl, was enjoying the summer holidays before her last year at school. But Farida lived in the mountains of northern Iraq and what happened next was unimaginable. Her village was an ISIS target. ISIS jihadists murdered the men and boys, including her father and brother, before taking Farida and the other women prisoner. This is the story of what happened to Farida after she was captured: the beatings, the rapes, the markets where ISIS sold women like cattle, and Farida's realisation that the more resistant she became, the harder it was for her captors to continue their atrocities against her. So she struggled, she bit, she kicked, she accused her captors of going against their religion, until, one day, the door to her room was left unlocked. She took her chance and, with five younger girls in her charge, fled into the Syrian desert. Farida showed incredible courage in the face of the unthinkable, and now with The Girl Who Beat ISIS she bravely relives her story to bear witness. Searing and immediate, this is the first memoir by a young woman that shows first-hand what life is like for innocents caught up in the maelstrom of day-to-day life with ISIS. eBook.

Farida Khalaf was a young Yazidi woman living a normal, sheltered life in northern Iraq during the summer of 2014 when her entire world was upended: her village was attacked by ISIS. All of the men in her town were killed and the women were taken into slavery. In unprecedented detail, Farida describes her world as it wasat nineteen, she was living at home with her brothers and parents, finishing her schooling and looking forward to becoming a math teacherand the nightmare it became. Held in a slave market in Syria and sold into the homes of several ISIS soldiers, she stubbornly attempted resistance at every turn. Farida is ultimately brought to an ISIS training camp in the middle of the desert, where she plots an against-all-odds escape for herself and five other girls. An astonishing firsthand account of life in captivity and a courageous flight to freedom, this "compelling testament to the suffering of ordinary people" ( The Guardian ) is also Farida's way of bearing witness, and of ensuring that ISIS does not succeed in crushing her spirit. As #1 New York Times bestselling author Ahmed Rashid affirms, "Everyone should read this in order to get to the heart of the tragedy of the Arab world." Farida's unrelenting bravery, resilience, and hope.
