Shahida Ahmed, from Nelson, is primarily known for her work in the visual arts, with
Through Brown Eyes representing her first foray into the literary realm. The novel begins in a local setting, with Nelson featuring prominently, and centres on a young woman of Pakistani heritage who faces many of the same struggles Ms Ahmed has herself throughout her life, while the narrative hopes to challenge stereotypes and traditional assumptions about Muslim women. Ms Ahmed said: It s very much an empowerment book for women. It s the story of a local South Asian girl who was born in the UK and it s really about making people believe that they have these stories and that they can do these things.
