Description

In the final part of his autobiographical trilogy with previous books set in North and Southern Africa, Chris McIvor relates the story of his several years in Morocco, his encounter with its history, geography and culture told through the people he met and the places he visited. This book is also an exploration of the rewards, challenges and contradictions of being an aid worker in a foreign country, and how the effort of taking time to listen to local people provides the most valuable lessons in how charity can be better delivered.

Professional reviews

"“When asked why I’d chosen Morocco I had shrugged my shoulders – it chose me rather than the other way round, I replied.” “[Chris McIvor] provides the essential historical context but allows the individual characters to speak for themselves and bring their cultures to life.” ADRIAN CLARK “In (his) new book […] Chris is a naive, intelligent and curious young man who immerses himself in the local community.” THE DAILY RECORD"
