About The Book
A searing and powerful narrative, My Name Is Salma is a gripping portrayal of a woman’s courage in the face of insurmountable odds. The story follows Salma, a young Muslim asylum-seeker in England, who is forced to flee her home country after becoming pregnant before marriage in her small village in the Levant. Her life changes forever as she is swept into prison for her own protection. The sounds of her newborn baby being taken from her echo in her heart, a pain she carries with her as she tries to rebuild her life.
Settling in the English town of Exeter, Salma adapts to her new life, learning manners from her landlady and eventually starting a relationship with an Englishman. However, the cries of her lost baby continue to haunt her. Unable to bear the anguish any longer, Salma returns to her village in search of her daughter—a journey that will change her life forever, yet also lead her to confront the inescapable truths of her past.
The book moves between the olive groves of the Levant and the rain-slicked streets of Exeter, highlighting themes of love, loss, and resilience. Salma’s story is not just one of survival, but of a woman who, against all odds, finds her way back to the place where her heart lies.
