The blurb on the book sums up what that author has lived through and points towards a happy ending (although there has to be an assumption that if the author was able to write the book then she has broken away from her oppressive world).This edition is published nearly ten years after the original book and promises an update to reflect the passing of time.The book is just over 300 pages and split into 35 short chapters.I know only a limited amount about the Indian culture in the UK so this book is a real insight. It's written in an easy style, making the story very accessible.Lots of times it seems that Jasvinder's life is heading in the wrong direction with no hope of recovery. Each time some hint of hope comes along to validate Jas's decision to leave her family. It always a comfort as you are reading to reflect that the first part of the book looks back from 2012 and is at a happy event.It's inspiring to watch the author's strength grow as she gradually starts to be able to give back to society and what she manages to achieve by the end of the book is nothing short of incredible.I finished reading this book absolutely full of admiration for what one person can do when they are determined.Jas never shies away from exposing her weaknesses and that make her victories seem so much more important. I felt I was literally cheering out loud for her at some points.This book is a story that not enough people know about. The author has used her experience to share the horrors that are happening all around the world. She makes her writing accessible and creates empathy from the reader.I'm going to recommend this to anyone who will listen as it's important for everyone to be informed about this practice. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ms Sanghera misses the real point in all her relationship woes - she does not recognise real love. This was what her first lover unmistakably showed ... *by F***9 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 February 2018* This was an absorbing read, even for an Anglo-Saxon. Very well composed, this memoir illuminates the issues arising from arranged marriages for 'westernised' Punjabi girls - not that the West has the laid the path to married bliss. The diligence of the Sikh community defies belief as does their willpower. Sadly, Ms Sanghera misses the real point in all her relationship woes - she does not recognise real love. This was what her first lover unmistakably showed her. To climb from joblessness and a hovel of a home to successful market trader having had no previous experience is a climb to the top of the ladder from the bottom rung. I was struck that when he contacted her years later she didn't realise that this was the real deal. He never ill-treated her, made a home for her and she was attracted physically to him. Perhaps he reminded her of too many sorrows she had to bear from her immediate family while in a relationship with him and so any get-together would bring those flooding back. Good luck to both of them. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shame *by K***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 January 2021* I really enjoyed this book and read it in a day. The work Jas does is crucial and she's incredibly brave and hard working. It's a disgrace that so many women still suffer today and talk of honour and shame that have nothing to do with any god or religion. I think her sisters ought to be ashamed of themselves, I think they are jealous of Jas's bravery and the fact that their lives never amounted to much. One sister in particular who seems to crawl back when she needs something I felt a real disliking for.Good luck to Jas and her children. She's changing things for woman and will have undoubtedly saved many lives. I'm sure they are proud of their mother and vice versa. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/69570289-shame-paperback-6-sept-2007](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/69570289-shame-paperback-6-sept-2007) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
