The Colour of God

Braiding together Western, South Asian and Quranic storytelling styles, Ayesha illuminates what it means to exist in a world that demands something different from each of her identities. With lyricism and precision, she weaves her personal experiences with incisive social commentary to uncover the meaning of faith and belonging, love and betrayal, family and womanhood.
