Informative, critical, work on an important topic. As much as I admire the book, it was a difficult read because of the intense violence, oppression, and dismal treatment of women it reports on.

Informative, but I found myself getting lost in the quick switches between stories and anecdotes. The preface was awful and should be removed. It didn't reflect well on the rest of the book.
