Laurence Ndong reveals to us the hidden ways of Gabonese politics. She describes the political misery she actually witnessed, a misery so deep that it threatens her hopes regarding the future of her country.

Most of all, she writes in order to share with every Gabonese her strongest conviction: that it is possible to build a better country, it is possible to change mentalities toward a true prosperity.

Laurence Ndong also wonders about the international community's outrageous silence regarding the violations of human rights. She analyses the underlying factors behind the country's social, values and economical crisis.

This book is definitely more than a political read, it is a Societal piece of work that includes valuable advice andreal-life examples, while recounting Laurence’s trials. It also provides a direction for anyone aspiring to a civic, political, institutional and organizational leadership position.
