"Fifteen writers in exile were asked for pieces of writing about their experiences in the home countries that they were forced to escape. These brutal and heart-rending stories show the strength and resilience of human beings from all over the world who continue to seek truth, justice, and freedom of expression. The pieces of writing in The Uncaged Voice can be brutal and heart-rending, but they also show the strength and resilience of journalists and writers from countries where freedom of the press and of expression are ideals, not reality. These writers are all refugees from such places; theirs are voices that speak to a world in which totalitarian forces attempt to subjugate, if not annihilate, all dissention."-- Provided by publisher.
