Scared

This book is truly a potent work of art. The author, a well-known and respected photographer, is aching to tell you of the circumstances in which most people live in Swaziland, Africa. He tells this story fashioned from real people he knew and experiences that he had while working there. \\r\\n\\r\\nIt is a gripping story with a powerful message. The story is based around one girl, Andanna, who endures an incredibly hard and painful few years of life - one no child should ever suffer - yet she has strength and lives her life with faith and dignity. \\r\\n\\r\\nThere are many examples of the harsh reality of the peoples' lives and their desperate need for food and water. Their support is scarce and often fraught with political motivations. SCARED is heartbreaking, yet authored with such beautiful ease and poignant tenacity. \\r\\n\\r\\nI would recommend this book to all - it's one you won't be putting down!\\r\\n\\r\\nReview by Elizabeth Wiles, Purchasing Officer, West Ryde\\r\\n
