«Deshonrada» is the autobiographical account by Mukhtar Mai and Marie-Thérèse Cuny, published by Tantín in hardcover (180 pages, in Spanish).
Mukhtar Mai recounts how a tribal council in Pakistan sentenced her to be raped by a group of men to atone for her brother's wrongdoing. Far from staying silent, she reported the assault and turned her case into a cause for women's rights, against traditions that legitimize violence and so-called honor.
Subtitle: «Los derechos de la mujer contra los abusos de una tradición cruel». Translation by Núria Petit Fontserè.
For those seeking a real testimony on the defense of women's rights and the denunciation of abuses sheltered by patriarchal traditions.
