Description: Whispers of Hope : A Family Memoir of Myanmar, Paperback by Mabey, Chris, ISBN 981495425X, ISBN-13 9789814954259, Brand New, Free shipping in the US As a British teenager, I meet a beautiful Burmese girl on the school bus. Her family self-exiled in 1964, soon after the military coup, to start a new life in England. My fascination is fired for this far-off did Burma, with such a regal past, swathed in natural beauty and populated by a people of unmistakable poise and serenity slide into repression and obscurity? How can the up-beat memories of Aprils parents be reconciled with Myanmars current malaise?Over 16 years I recorded the oral history, anecdotes and reminiscences of her family who were eye witnesses to momentous events in mid-century Burma. These together with more recent conversations - with Aung San Suu Kyi and a range of Burmese millennials - provide a unique portrait of Myanmar stretching back to Aprils great, great grandfather in all the woes of this country, whispers of hope can be heard.
