Charlotte's Journal, Like Her Award-winning Films, Is A Close-up Of Africa's Deep-rooted Problems&#8212;from Survival Issues Like Aids, Famine And Cholera, To The Unspeakable And Ritual Maltreatment Of Women. She Presents A Moving Picture Of African Heroism In The Face Of The Kind Of Suffering We Would All Prefer To Walk Away From&#8212;but Know We No Longer Can. This Is A Book For Anyone Who Cares About The Human Condition.</p>
