Edison Public Library cardholders are invited to hear from Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai as she discusses her memoir, Finding My Way, during a virtual program taking place on Wednesday, October 22, at 7:00pm.
 
Thrust onto the public stage at the age of 15 following the Taliban’s brutal attack on her life, Yousafzai quickly became an international icon known for bravery and resilience. But, away from the cameras and crowds, she spent years struggling to find her place in an unfamiliar world. 
 
Finding My Way is a story of friendship and first love, of anxiety and self-discovery, of trying to stay true to yourself when everyone wants to tell you who you are. In it, Yousafzai traces her path from high school loner to reckless college student to a young woman at peace with her past. Through candid, often messy moments like nearly failing exams, getting ghosted, and meeting the love of her life, she reminds us that real role models aren’t perfect—they’re human.
 
Yousafzai is an education activist, the youngest-ever Nobel laureate, a bestselling author, and award-winning film producer, and Finding My Way is a vulnerable, surprising memoir that buzzes with authenticity, sharp humor, and tenderness. 
 
Register now to join Malala Yousafzai as she takes an intimate look at her life. Questions can also be submitted through the registration page.
