Description
The
true story of a London schoolteacher, who, tired of the rat race and brooding
over a failed relationship, uproots and volunteers to teach in rural Africa for
two years. Sent to the Republic of Zambia with a remit to teach maths, HIV and
Gender awareness, he finds both hope in unusual places, and corruption where he
least expects. This memoir is both a recollection of his more vivid memories of
eastern province, and his reflections on problems in Zambia and their possible
causes. It is also a useful study of the physical and psychological challenges
that a volunteer may face in Africa
