Bharti Dhir

Opis

As a baby, Bharti Dhir was abandoned at a roadside in the Ugandan heat, and miraculously found by a passerby. She was later welcomed into a Punjabi-Sikh family, but in 1972 the family were forced to flee when Idi Amin expelled Asians from Uganda. A powerful memoir of overcoming adversity that will inspire you to find strength from within.
