HarperCollins India just announced the forthcoming publication of the memoir of Reham Khan, the daring Pakistani journalist. Reham Khan’s eventful life took her from Gaddafi’s Libya to Zia’s Pakistan and thence to England as a teenage bride, before she returned to Pakistan in her forties.
Hers has been a life of extraordinary contrasts: she has been through a violent marriage and domestic abuse, but her story also includes the rebuilding of her life after she chose to end her first marriage, raising three children single-handedly and at the same time, attaining hard-earned professional success. Today she has a successful career as a broadcast journalist and anchor, both in the UK and in Pakistan.
Reham Khan was married to the celebrity cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan for a year in 2015. She self-published her memoir in the summer of 2018, revealing facets of her relationship with Imran Khan and the murky world of Pakistan politics to which she has had a ringside view, taking the world by storm. This edition of her much-discussed book now makes her incredible story available to readers in the Indian Subcontinent.
Despite all that Reham Khan has endured, her story is ultimately one of resilience, strength, courage and conviction. It is the story of a woman who believed in herself and stood up to the world despite the fact that the odds were stacked against her – and ultimately emerged victorious.
In clear, crisp prose, Reham Khan tells her story with wit, intelligence and candour. This is a memoir that will engage and surprise readers of all ages and of both genders; to many it will be an inspirational tale from a woman who fought for respect and for her identity on her own terms, a woman who is a survivor, and a winner.
Published by HarperCollins India, the memoir Reham Khan will be out in August 2018.
