The Road of Lost Innocence: The True Story of a Cambodian Heroine by Somaly Mam

5.0

I just finished this book a few days ago and I have no idea where to start. It fueled a range of emotions: anger, sadness, inspiration... I think there are quite a few Somaly's out there that don't know how to change things. Fearful of whatever repercussions. She told her story and it not only put a face (one of too many) to sexual trafficking but allowed the reader to see exactly how these girls are sold and abducted. I actually read an article about her months ago (something about her her and her daughter were being threatened)before reading this. I thought to myself at that time that she must be quite a force. To continue with threats to her life. Reading this just reinforced that.
