Sinopse

In "The Story of My Experiments with Truth," Mahatma Gandhi presents a profound narrative that intertwines his personal evolution with his moral philosophy. Written with an intimate voice, the text offers readers insight into Gandhi's life, detailing his struggles with ethical dilemmas, his commitment to non-violence, and his search for spiritual truth. The literary style blends autobiographical reflection with philosophical discourse, setting it within the broader context of early 20th-century Indian nationalism and the struggle for independence. It stands as both a memoir and a manifesto, urging individuals to pursue truth with steadfast determination. Gandhi, a pivotal figure in global peace movements, was influenced by diverse philosophical traditions, including Hinduism, Jainism, and Western thought. His commitment to truth and non-violence, shaped by his personal experiences in South Africa and India, culminated in this seminal work. The evolution of his thoughts is a mirror to the socio-political landscape of India, showcasing how personal ethical decisions can ripple into collective freedom. This book is not only a recount of Gandhi's life but also serves as a guiding light for anyone seeking to grapple with their own ethical and moral challenges. Readers are invited to explore Gandhi's insights, gaining valuable lessons on integrity, resilience, and the pursuit of truth in their own lives, making it an essential read for those interested in philosophy, ethics, or social justice.

    A 5-year-old boy, Ethan, is brought to Casey in the middle of the night after the sudden death of his young mother after a drug overdose. 
    Estranged from her parents, Ethan’s mum had been abused by her ex-partner, and began taking drugs to cope. Ethan is obviously lost and bewildered, and regularly wakes up screaming for his mum in the night. He begins to lash out at other kids at school and his behaviour becomes more volatile. When arrangements are made for Ethan to see his dad in prison, Casey recognises the name and face… It turns out she’s far more familiar with this case than first imagined. 
    In this heart-wrenching biography, Casey Watson, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the personal struggles of Ethan, a child thrust into the world of fostering and adoption after a family tragedy. The narrative explores the complex relationships within the social work system, and Ethan's survival in the face of adversity.
