Just Another Jihadi Jane - Tabish Khair - Bog

"A novel about friendship, faith, and alienation, Just Another Jihadi Jane tells the tale of Islamist radicalization from the inside. Two children of Muslim immigrants in England's industrial north, thoughtful Jamilla and rebellious Ameena, become best friends, and find in religion and social media a community as welcoming and encouraging as their public education is estranging. After Jamillas father dies and her brother marries, the two girls leave England and join the Islamist cause in Syria. The intellectual and emotional poverty as well as the violence they find there creates a story as gripping as it is heart-wrenching."--Provided by publisher.
