by Hajah Kandeh (Author)
"Hajah Kandeh takes readers on a ride that will never be forgotten. Nor should it be." - Jabali Smith, Founder of The Well Child Foundation
At twenty-three, Hajah Kandeh flees Sierra Leone carrying the trauma of abandonment, the shame of a dark family secret, and a deep desire to reconnect with her mother. Her journey takes her from the lush plains of Africa to the "promised land" of San Francisco, where she tries to make sense of the disparity between the two cultures and faces personal challenges that go beyond what she left behind. Daughter of a Thousand Stars is the true account of one woman's unyielding will to survive-a story that shows us the strength of the human spirit even when stretched to the breaking point. Hajah dares us to believe in our capacity to overcome adversity and be a force for good in this world. "Daughter of a Thousand Stars will touch the lives of all who are on a journey to reclaim their power." - Tolu Olupona M.D. "The world is a better place for having such a bright and beautiful being as Hajah Kandeh in it. An inspiring read!" - Michelle Jewsbury, Executive Director, Unsilenced Voices
