The reader gets a look at her life as she describes growing up in Somalia and the culture that surrounded her.  Her travels around the world at different points in her life are interesting because she describes her observations concerning the differences in appearance and cultural behaviors of others in other regions of the world and the physical world and its arrangement of architecture, resources, and frequently higher organization.  She sees different levels of freedoms and restriction.  Throughout the biography she describes that there is an awareness of seeking a sense of justice and self-fulfillment.  She is trying to realize and be true to herself.   There are things that she wishes and strives for in life and in time she transcends her local Islamic and Somali culture and becomes a new person.
