Hope Dies Last

The subtitle carries the message of this engaging book where a multitude of activists tell their stories in a simple and often disarming manner. The emphasis is on the influences that have shaped them. Many interviewees will not be known in Europe but a few are, like Dennis Kucinich and Francis Moore Lappe. Her next project is about overcoming fear with hope and she conveys a wonderful image of individual raindrops creating a bucket of hope. We need plenty of them and this book is one such.
