When will it end? The control, the patriarchy, the dominance. Afsheen battles a fight which she never started but is a victim of. A victim with a bruised soul that keeps on fighting the double standards of her society and standing up for herself but keeps falling. Set in a remote village of Pakistan, ‘Bruises’ tells a heart wrenching story which is based on true events. Dedicated to countless women like Afsheen, It is an elegy for the faceless, the unknown, the unsung.
‘Bruises’ is not a perfect book. These pages contain an indescribable amount of pain, but the magical moments within, wonderfully unique, make this experience worthwhile. Extremely moving, very inspiring and uplifting; with a fair share of funny moments too. What you get out of Afsheen’s story, what will make you tear up is the motif of fragility of life as seen by the children in some cultures who have a limited supply of that life, basically a limited 'infinity'.
