The Voice of Hope Zusammenfassung

The Voice of Hope: Conversations with Alan Clements Aung San Suu Kyi

Aung San Suu Kyi is known for her courageous stand for democracy and human rights inside Burma (now Myanmar). Forced to endure many years of house arrest by the military junta, she continues to act as a focus for change inside the country now that she is free. Such is her determined action for the best interests of Burma that she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991.

One of the very few people she has trusted enough to take her message to the wider world is Alan Clements. The Voice of Hope offers unquestionably the most wide-ranging collection of her views on the political situation inside Burma, her non-violent approach to democracy and human rights, her Buddhist beliefs, her family, and how she keeps a sense of meaning and purpose under the most difficult conditions.

The Voice of Hope Bewertungen

[Shows] Aung San Suu Kyi's humour, erudition, wisdom and accessibility, and demonstrate[s] why she has become a world spiritual leader * New York Times *
I am delighted that The Voice of Hope is being republished. This is a message that the world should hear * President Jimmy Carter *
This is a remarkable book, as inspired as it is wise. Read it and learn from Aung San Suu Kyi's amazing life * Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart *
Suu Kyi is one of the most remarkable and brave women of our time. Her dying husband Michael was refused permission to go to visit her. Even the phone calls I used to have with her have been stopped for some years. The regime in Burma is an outrage, and it is a blot on the international community that we have done so little about it. This book is testimony to the staunch commitment and sacrifice of an astonishingly courageous and visionary person * The Rt Hon the Lord David Steel of Aikwood KT *
Aung San Suu Kyi's struggle for freedom is Burma's struggle for freedom. If you read this important book you'll understand why * Maureen Lipman *
