Nadia Ansar ble oppkalt etter den rumenske turneren Nadia Com?neci. Hun var symbolet på «the perfect 10»; det uoppnåelige, feilfrie og perfekte. Utad var hun den plettfrie datteren, den store kjærligheten til Abid Raja, det gode innvandreralibiet og den velintegrerte psykologen, ekspert på følelser som skam og skyld. Det ingen så var at hun bar på en ryggsekk full av skam og mørke hemmeligheter. Selv ikke Abid visste alt.I ektemannens bestselgende bok Min skyld var hun det forbudte blikket i T-banevognen, kjæresten forkledd i burka, bruden han fryktet aldri ville komme - og kvinnen som gråt på bryllupsnatten. Men Nadias stemme manglet. Med boken Min skam ønsker hun nå å bruke sin personlige og faglige stemme til å fortelle historien om den flinke minoritetsjentas kamp for å få lov til å være seg selv. Om å vokse opp på Ekeberg i Oslo som datter av den lokale kjøpmannen og den eneste jenta i klassen med minoritetsbakgrunn. Om hennes fars halsbrekkende spagat mellom det likestilte, norske samfunnet og den patriarkalske kulturens forventninger. Om kampen for likestilling i forholdet til Abid som fortsatte, selv etter at kjærligheten hadde vunnet fram.Som voksen ser Nadia Ansar flere velutdannede medsøstre med minoritetsbakgrunn gi opp den smertefulle balansekunsten i det likestilte Norge. De blir husmødre med hijab, og noen flytter tilbake til foreldrenes hjemland. Nadia Ansar mener det er skammen som hindrer dem i å leve frie liv.

Kulturminister Abid Raja er blitt kalt breial, brautende, poserende og dominerende. Hans liv har handlet mye om det motsatte: Om å skjule smertene og handikappet han ble født med, å skjule seg for volden og mobbingen - og å skjule kjærligheten til den han elsker. Skyldfølelsen hans - en blanding av skam og frykt, har hindret ham i å kjenne på de andre følelsene han som menneske er utstyrt med. Alt han har kjent, er et voldsomt sinne. Da han som voksen oppsøkte en erfaren, kvinnelig psykolog for å få hjelp til å beherske temperamentet sitt, spurte hun: «Har du noen idé om hvor det sinnet kommer fra? Er det noe annet i livet ditt som du egentlig er sint for?» Dette er den brutalt ærlige historien om Abid Rajas turbulente klassereise, hans mangeårige kamp for kjærligheten og den smertefulle frigjøringen fra skam, skyld og utenforskap.
