Sobre este título

 By the age of five, Naz Shah was used to the sight of her father beating her mother. At six, her father left the family for a teenage neighbour. At twelve, she was sent to Pakistan for protection from her mother's new abuser, only to be forced into marriage at the age of fifteen. Within a couple of years, her mother would be in prison, jailed for murdering the man who had subjected her to years of physical and sexual torture, and Naz and her two younger siblings would be left to fend for themselves.

For years, Naz campaigned alongside Southall Black Sisters for her mother's release and was instrumental in achieving a reduction in her life sentence. Sustained by the ever-increasing strength of her Islamic faith and guided by its values of justice and compassion, she found purpose in the fight for her family and for others who had been silenced. In 2015, she was elected to Parliament, overturning George Galloway's majority to win back Bradford West for the Labour Party in one of the most momentous battles of the campaign. In serving the very community that once turned its back on her, she has transformed betrayal into leadership.

In Honoured, Naz reveals how growing up against almost impossible odds lit the fire that still drives her today. This is the unflinching account of a young British Muslim woman coming of age and discovering the power of her own voice. An inspiring story of survival, faith and political awakening, it charts the making of an activist determined to speak out, stand up and claim space in a world that rarely offers it.©2026 Naseem Akhtar Shah Islã Política e Ativismo Política e Governo

Resumo da Crítica

You will be knocked sideways by this book, the most extraordinary and thought-provoking memoir by any MP in recent times. Personal and heart wrenching, it pinpoints the tension between traditional patriarchy and modern Islam, which will be one of the defining issues for today's Britain (ANDREW MARR)
From the start I couldn't put this book down. A gritty and heartfelt honest account of extraordinary events that have shaped Naz to be a formidable campaigner. A story of life, love and resilience (ANGELA RAYNER)
This is a story from the inner woman under relentless attack, a story of resilience and strength against all odds. A story of the most heinous crimes against childhood. It is the most unusual and shocking story of a standing MP I have ever read. I can hardly believe she is saying all of this. But she is. I can hardly believe she lived through it. But she did . . . Thank the stars for Naz Shah, a true heroine of our times (LEMN SISSAY)
Naz Shah is a brave, bright beacon of hope and her story is a must read. It will stay with you for a very long time (LORRAINE KELLY)
A genuinely riveting account of a remarkable life so far. It is sad and shocking, but also inspiring and uplifting for what it reveals about the capacity of human beings to endure real suffering and come through it determined to make the world a better place (ALASTAIR CAMPBELL)
An intensely passionate and brilliant memoir which honours the human spirit (YASMIN ALIBHAI-BROWN)
An unforgettable story of courage, resilience and triumph. Naz Shah shares her journey from hardship and trauma to becoming a powerful voice in politics, inspiring readers with her determination and strength. Raw, honest and deeply moving, this memoir proves that adversity can fuel extraordinary leadership. A must-read for anyone who believes in the power of perseverance (SADIQ KHAN)
In this remarkable, utterly admirable memoir, [Naz] relates how she found her voice and political calling against almost impossible odds and without a shred of privilege (Caroline Sanderson)
An astounding story of courage and resilience. I couldn't put it down (MONICA ALI)
Deeply moving, shocking and inspiring. A powerful page turner you couldn't make up (RIZ AHMED)
