Description
Lying Perfectly Still
A harrowing and evocative novel about the exploitation of the international development sector, written from an insider's perspective. Koliwe's journey from Oxford to Eswatini takes her to the heart of a community torn between tradition and modernity, where the harsh realities of wealth and poverty clash.
With beautiful prose and a deep understanding of the complexities of post-colonial life, Laura Fish delivers a searing exposé of the darker side of aid work. A thought-provoking and deeply moving read, Lying Perfectly Still is a powerful exploration of identity, culture and the human condition.
