Breaking my reading slump with this book: Growing Up Bin Laden by Jean Sasson. Gripping and heartbreaking, Ms. Sasson takes us to the domestic world of the infamous Osama Bin Laden through the eyes of his first wife Najwa Bin Laden and their fourth son Omar Bin Laden. What life was like for the first and most important wife of Osama? What kind of father and husband had Osama been? Had he love his wives (5) and children (24)? 👇

thevagabondlawyer How could he perpetrated such reprehensible acts without considering its effects to his innocent children? Questions like these and more are answered in this fascinating story of with a strong sense of family, extremism, religion, and ideology. 👏👊 3y

In gripping detail, they recount the drama, tensions, and everyday activities of the man they knew as a husband and father. Jean Sasson is a wonderful writer. Pick for me.
