About the Book
While Dreams Sleep features personal stories of Pakistani women as
recorded and photographed by Kaye Martindale and Geoff Brokate.
They visited cities, mountain villages and rural communities meeting
woman after woman who opened their arms and hearts: some telling
stories of success after determined struggle, some bringing out into
the light for the first time secrets of pain and tragedy and some were
barely able to find the words to express their suffering.
One remarkable encounter was with a young Malala Yousafzai who at
the age of 14 was unaware of the tragedy that awaited her. She was
already known in her community for speaking out against the Taliban
and standing up for girls’ education. It is an intimate encounter with a
powerful voice who would go on to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
In the story of Malala we see the best and worst of Pakistan; a country
of extremes where circumstances force acts of formidable courage and
acts of unthinkable brutality.
