O knihe
This is a book that defies categorisation. Let there be Peace is more than a collection of stories about workcamps and volunteering although the reader gets an intimate view into the experiences of anyone who forgoes the nine-to-five predictability of the West for what some call the ÔdevelopingÕ world. The writings are not starry-eyed and idealistic; an attempt to reach the worldÕs largest refugee camp in the north of Sri Lanka meet with frustration and expose the clashing perspectives and agendas of local and foreign volunteers. These biographies and memoirs also take the reader into unexpected places: the Middle East or apartheid-era South Africa. Furthermore, simple stories are augmented by photos, pictures, letters and emails that chart the progress of the newcomer along with highly personalised musings by the author on the wider context of peace activism and volunteering. Let there be Peace is a book like no other.
