Our book of the month

Fundamentally by Nussaibah Younis

This is the sexy, snarky but somehow sensitive story of a young academic of Muslim heritage who finds herself parachuted into Iraq to run the deradicalisation programme for ‘ISIS brides’, the young westerners lured to the caliphate only to find the reality of life in sharp contrast to their teenage fantasies.

Not exactly the stuff of comedy? Wrong. Younis, herself an ex-adviser on deradicalisation, spins a devilishly funny tale, seamlessly weaving fact and fiction.
