Inspiring and encouraging stories!

The book tells stories of people in Asia which Mr. Bale (the author) knows some times ago. He decided to see what happened to them after all these years. As I took a journey along with Mr. Bale both in his book and personally when he was writing it (I have helped him as an interpreter while he was in Thailand writing one chapter of this book), I found it to be a wonderful voyage. The stories are inspiring and full of hope as the name of the book itself implied.


It touches the hart of the reader!

I visited the Future Hope organisation in Calcutta India back in 1997. Tim Grandage is fantastic. He is really doing a marvellous job rehabilitating street children of Calcutta. Chris Bale knows how to capture the children then and now very well. Read the whole book in one go. Simply fabulous!

A baby girl, a family of sugar workers, a disabled man, a student, a well-meaning banker, a village woman and a boy with leprosy. Nobody rich or famous. Just faces in the crowd. Yet each with a remarkable story to tell.

Chris Bale met them all during 20 years of working with charities in Asia. Time passed and he lost contact with them, but in 1997 he set out to find them again, hoping to see how their lives had changed.

This is the moving story of that search, a journey which started in a fishing village in the Philippines and ended seven months later on the dusty streets of Karachi.
