Recensione:
** 'This is a book about how one person's courage can make a difference (SUNDAY BUSINESS POST)
** 'Written deftly and sparely, this story easily transcends the current rash of 'misery (life-stories. Somaly Mam has no truck with sensationalism or self pity: action for change is patently what she is all about.')
GOOD HOUSEKEEPING (** 'There's a big difference between misery memoir and campaigning autobiography as this traumatic and brave account of Mam's abandonment into the Cambodian sex slave trade amply demonstrates.')
SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY (** 'This activist's memoir, driven by a sense of purpose greater than the self, is related with a haunting directness, in a dignified translation from the original French by Lisa Appignanesi')
