In Kabul, 2007, with a drug-addicted father and no brothers, Rahima and her sisters can only sporadically attend school and rarely leave the house. Their only hope lies in the ancient custom of bacha posh, which allows young Rahima to dress and be treated as a boy until she is of marriageable age.

DNF @ 10% - Just isn't holding my attention like I thought it would. Maybe I'm just not in the right mindset right now? Maybe it's because I'm listening to the audiobook? I'll put it down for now and maybe pick it up again in the future.
