The Road from Morocco recounts the extraordinary life of Saadia and her daughter Wafa. It transports readers back in time to a Middle Eastern society far removed from modern American sensibilities-to Morocco, where Saadia was born and wed against her will at thirteen. Based on recorded history and family memories, the book chronicles Saadia's arranged marriage and hardships as a young mother to Wafa, a French-educated, sexually liberated Muslim woman, who traveled to Europe and then to America, reaching a top position on Wall Street-in theory, the fulfillment of her American dream but in reality an overwhelming experience that threatens everything she holds dear.Like the best of fiction, this is an intensely personal emotional rollercoaster tale full of twists and turns, which make it hard to put down. In the words of a reader: "It's beautiful even in the heartbreaking moments and utterly exquisite in the pleasant ones."

More About The Road from Morocco
Wonderful book. I loved it from the start. Thanks Waha for sharing your dreams, fears and tears. I purchased the Road from Morocco and then spent all day and night and into the next morning reading it, ignoring everything else around me.My eyes welled with tears more than once through this beautifully moving book, gripping from start to finish and with a sweet air of honesty and forgiveness permeating throughout, in spite of the... Interesting life story lived by an interesting woman. While the timeline was could be confusing, the author's honesty was at times breathtaking. Wafa makes no effort to make herself look like anyone other than who she is and which is quite refreshing.
