This was really well told, Caro as it made me suitably angry and then relieved at Maryam’s plight. The repression of basic human rights, particularly for women, in this day and age is disgraceful. And, it’s equally shameful that our governments still think it’s OK to trade with a lot of these countries. Anyway, told you it makes me angry!

Another great story. Thanks very much for sharing so many of these over the last 8 months I’ve been on Substack and for supporting my writing with your kind comments and feedback 🙂👍🏼

Thank you, Dan! It makes me angry too! I know women who have fled one lousy situation and landed in another because people keep voting in these oppressive governments that will not cede control once they're in. Anyway, I've enjoyed your stories and movie reviews. Thanks very much also for your kind words. Have a great holiday, and I hope to read more of your beautiful words in the new year.
