Description:

In order to be able to survive, Aisha Sarwari was told, love and devoted acts of service In this riveting and candid memoir, Heart Tantrums fearsomely discusses the series of devastating losses that shaped author Aisha Sarwari's life. From losing her father at a young age to leaving her home in East Africa and adapting to a new culture after marriage, Sarwari navigates through the challenges of a lifetime. However, even as she strives to maintain her sense of self, she must grapple with the harsh realities of mental illness and the societal pressures of being a Pakistani feminist and career-oriented professional. With sharp and scientific language, this book shatters the myth that love and marriage can save a person in times of turmoil, instead highlighting the struggles and sacrifices that come with standing up for one's identity. From the darkness of grief to the complexities of immigration and family dynamics, Heart Tantrums is a powerful and poignant tale of resilience and finding one's place in the world.
