Description

Hearing Birds Fly is a deeply personal account of Louisa Waugh's time in a remote Mongolian village. Frustrated with the monotony of city life, she was drawn to the rugged beauty and harsh realities of rural Mongolia.

Through her experiences, Waugh shares the struggles and triumphs of the villagers, as well as her own growing understanding of the land and its people. With unflinching honesty, she confronts the challenges of living in a society that values tradition over modernity, and grapples with her own place within it.

The result is a powerful and moving portrait of life in one of the world's most remote communities, where the boundaries between nature and culture are constantly blurred.
