If forced to return home, she was sure she would be killed, like other rebel women in her country. As men pounded at the door of her barricaded hotel room, she opened a Twitter account. The teenager reached out to the world, and the world answered--she gained 45,000 followers in one day, and those followers helped her seek asylum in the West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow Rahaf Mohammed tells her remarkable story in her own words, revealing untold truths about life in the closed kingdom, where young women are brought up in a repressive system that puts them under the legal control of a male guardian. Raised with immense financial privilege but under the control of her male relatives--including her high-profile politician father--she endured an abusive childhood in which oppression and deceit were the norm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoving from Rahaf's early days on the underground online network of Saudi runaways, who use coded entries to learn how to flee the brutalities of their homeland, to her solo escape to Canada, Rebel is a breathtaking and life-affirming memoir about one woman's tenacious pursuit of freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis raw and unflinching account is more than a story of escape--it's a testament to survival against impossible odds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEscape from Abuse: \u003c\/b\u003e The harrowing, meticulously planned flight from a high-profile, abusive family in Saudi Arabia, where disobedience can mean death.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe Male Guardianship System: \u003c\/b\u003e A visceral, firsthand look at life in the closed kingdom, where every woman is under the legal control of a male relative--from her finances to her freedom of movement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eA Twenty-First-Century SOS: \u003c\/b\u003e How a single Twitter account, opened in a barricaded Bangkok hotel room, became a lifeline, rallying 45,000 followers in one day to challenge a government and save a life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThe Fight for Asylum: \u003c\/b\u003e The gripping real-time story of being stripped of a passport, facing deportation, and navigating international bureaucracy to find a safe haven and a new life in Canada.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.1 x 6.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 08, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50332820963565,"sku":"9780063045484","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/4jKT1gCJR19780063045484.webp?v=1784970813","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-ca\/products\/rebel-my-escape-from-saudi-arabia-to-freedom-hardcover","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
