How do you rebuild yourself after the world witnesses your most profound trauma?
When Malala Yousafzai was thrust onto the public stage, she was just 15 years old. Forced
to leave her home in Pakistan after the Taliban's brutal attack on her life, she became an
international icon - a young woman who embodied resilience, activism and hope. But
underneath that outward-facing persona was a survivor grappling with how to move
forward after having her life categorically and inalterably changed, set on a path that she
never would have predicted.
Touching on the raw reality of her survival, Finding My Way is a story of friendship and
first love, of mental illness and self-discovery, of trying to stay true to yourself when the
world insists on telling you who you are. In it, Malala traces her path from high school
loner to reckless college student to a young woman finally at peace. Along the way, she
offers surprising and profound meditations on her struggles with anxiety and PTSD, and
the tightrope she walked to balance the weight of her public role with the private need to
heal and rediscover herself.
In this unforgettable memoir, told with humour, fierce vulnerability and piercing
candidness, Malala reintroduces herself to the world, sharing how she navigated life as
someone whose survival seemed to define her narrative - while seeking the freedom to
find out who she truly is.
