Anyone interested in learning about French Muslims and their various legacies should read her narrative.
Fatima Adamou:
Born in France, Fatima Adamou has written fiction and non-fiction books for both adults and children.
Her keen interest in her religion first led her to frequently share her opinion on topics regarding Muslim communities on a French Muslim news website. Driven by her passion, she then started blog writing on books and matters related to Islam and Muslims.
Before she became a writer, Fatima Adamou worked as a teacher and in the interfaith sector. She lived in England for several years.
