The Back Of The Bus: Forty years of Learning from the Poor

By Susanne Garnett

Have you ever given to charity and wondered what happened to your money? In this book, Susanne Garnett draws on a long and varied career in the aid sector to give us the answer. For more than forty years she has worked with more than two hundred different agencies and community groups, travelling from the Himalayas, to the Andes, and from East to West across sub-Saharan Africa. You are invited to board the bus with her, to share some of the many heart-breaking but also inspiring stories told along the way. The author has witnessed the good, the bad and the ugly, but everywhere she has met people alive and kicking, full of spirit and good humour despite suffering brutality and pain. This is a book about real life. It is also full of humour, and is a tribute to the very poorest in the world, those at the back of the bus, and those who can't even afford to board it at all.
