Indisponible
Triumphant and uplifting - a queer Muslim memoir about forgiveness and
freedom.

'Revolutionary' Mona Eltahawy * 'Exquisite, powerful and urgent' Stacey May
Fowles * 'I fell in love with this book' Shani Mootoo

A memoir of hope, faith and love, Samra Habib's story starts with growing up
as part of a threatened minority sect in Pakistan, and follows her arrival in
Canada as a refugee, before escaping an arranged marriage at sixteen. When she
realized she was queer, it was yet another way she felt like an outsider.

So begins a journey that takes her to the far reaches of the globe to uncover
a truth that was within her all along. It shows how Muslims can embrace queer
sexuality, and families can embrace change. A triumphant story of forgiveness
and freedom, We Have Always Been Here is a rallying cry for anyone who has
ever felt alone and a testament to the power of fearlessly inhabiting one's
truest self.
