Acerca de esta escucha

In a deeply moving and warm performance, Ambreen Razia delivers her bold and provocative one-woman play that confronts—and dismantles—stereotypes surrounding Muslim women.

Growing up in downscale urban London wearing hoop earrings and a hijab, Shaheeda, the British Muslim teen at the center of The Diary of a Hounslow Girl, balances the expectations of her family and the temptations of city life. Between the joys of traditional Pakistani weddings and fights on the night bus, this comic and raw coming-of-age story highlights her struggle with deep-rooted Pakistani values, and the modern aspirations—and frustrations—of youth.

Very relatable and sincere. I couldn't stop listening. I truly wish there was more. Great selection.

Great performance

When this audible first started I was confused. Quickly, I realized it was a dramatization and not a book. Though the story started from the end and jumped back and forth a bit, I was not completely lost. I empathize with the main character. She was young, naive and a relatable troubled teen. I appreciated the themes, but was left wanting for some resolve in the story. The performance was great.

Intriguing

I have been enjoying the originals but dairy of a Hounslow Girl is so well read. The story pulls you in. It is so real. Listen you won’t be sorry!

really funny and moving narrative. the performance makes everything in the story come to life.

excellent story

This was adapted from a stage play (one woman I think) and in the adaptation they use a lot of sound effects that make for difficult listening outside of a theater. Walking? Riding the bus? At the gym? There will be chunks of dialogue/monologue that are difficult to hear. As someone who does not listen to podcasts and audio books while sitting quietly in a silent room, I found this frustrating. That being said, I enjoyed both the story and the interview with the author/performer.

Interesting story, messy audio

Ambreen performed every seen marvelously. The performance and the sound effects gave the piece an enormous realistic touch. The description and details made the story come alive in an almost magical way.

Marvelous performance!

Great story but the recording is difficult to make out at lots of times. I’d have loved to see this on stage.

Volume is inconsistent

Transformation from grumpy, rebellious teen to a wise young woman. Won me over! Touching story.

Stick with it for the ending!

Narrator/Writer is amazing. I felt like I was sitting watching an actual play. The way the character describes her feelings made me remember how it was to be a teen. Pretty relatable character.

Loved it.

I was pleasantly surprised. This was a short but fascinating character study that intrigued me more than I expected. Not perfect, but interesting nontheless. You can get it for free, you can finish it in an evening. I mean, why not check it out?

Surprisingly interesting.
