Freedom: The Story of My Second Life by Malika Oufkir

3.0

Malika Oufkir's first book, "Stolen Lives," was such a gripping tale of privilege, imprisonment, survival and ultimately, triumph, that this book couldn't possibly measure up. Quite frankly, the story of Oufkir's survival after her release as a political prisoner is rather mundane and normal. While that is very good news, it is a ho-hum story. I'm glad that she's doing well, and that she's enjoying a good life, but this book was boring and disjointed.

"Stolen Lives" is still one of my favorite books of all time. "Freedom: The Story of my Second Life" is a drab denouement to "Stolen Lives."
