01.Aug.2007 Desert Dawn by Waris Dirie
“I wanted to return to the place where I was born and see it with new eyes. I had no idea where my family was in Somalia. At first it seemed impossible—almost as impossible as a camel girl becoming a fashion model.” ~ Waris
I read this book altogether with the first one, Desert Flower. The sequel is about Waris coming home to Somalia, looking for her family. Easy read, like the first one. Less sad and lighter. I read the book a long time ago before I wrote this review though, so I’ve already forgotten many details and direct impression which people get soon after they close the book. In short, if you read the first one, this one is worth the time too, even just for the sake of finishing the journey.
