Little did she know that her voyage would take a tragic turn, transforming her life into a harrowing tale of exploitation and dehumanization.In this powerful biography, Saartjie’s true story is finally given a voice, allowing her to recount her experiences firsthand. From the initial promise of work as a nursery maid to the shocking reality of being displayed as an object of desire in London and Paris, her journey is one of heartbreak, resilience, and survival.As you delve into Saartjie’s own words, you will bear witness to the fear and anguish of a displaced soul in foreign lands.
