Title: Couldn't stand to finish this book
Review: I thought "My Feudal Lord" was about a woman trying to divorce her abusive husband in a strict Muslim society. That's what the cover had me believe and that's what I wanted to read about. Instead I got poorly written babble - so poorly written that I didn't finish this book. Tehmina left a kind husband and her daughter for Mustafa - and she expects me to feel sympathetic when Mustafa forces her new family into excile in England! She turns her eldest daughter away THREE times - and then moans about travelling every day to visit her husband in prison. She had THREE chances to leave her abusive husband, and each time she returned. I wanted to shake some sense into this woman who, the 3rd time, returned to her husband because their 'political destinies were so closely linked'. I think her political aspirations and need to be associated with a powerful man overshadowed the physical damage her husband did to her. I won't recommend this book to anyone.
