The colour of god, Author : Ayesha S. Chaudhry

This is a true story (a memoir) about a girl who grew up in Canada in a very strict Muslim family. Her parents followed a very traditional version of Islam because they believed it would protect their children from racism.

The book shares both the happy and sad moments of growing up in such a strict home. The writer connects her personal story with bigger issues like colonialism, migration, and identity.

As she grows up, she begins to question the beliefs she was taught as a child. She invites readers to think in new ways about family, faith, love, identity, and belonging.
