Editorial Reviews
Los Angeles Times, March 22, 2005
'The Story of My Life,' [is] in a certain sense, the world's most literate reality show.

Review
"Very compelling....Here you have a girl, a child, who suffered her own disability, [and] the loss of her family and her homeland. She's taking care of her aging mother and adapting to this new culture, and she's a bright, shining light in the world....Very moving."

--Mary Karr, New York Times bestselling author of The Liar's Club and Cherry


"Inspiring....A wonderful story."

--James McBride, New York Times bestselling author of The Color of Water and Miracle at St. Anna


"A great twenty-first century American immigrant story. The Story of My Life is the modern American dream, and it's rich with details of the Taliban and Afghanistan."

--Peter Castro, executive editor of People magazine


"The Story of My Life has that wonderful quality of survival and is most compelling. Seeing Afghanistan from the eyes of this girl provides a deep, rich look that we haven't seen before."

--Mary Higgins Clark, author of thirty-two worldwide bestsellers
