| book description |

**A TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR** Encountering the last leprosarium in Europe and remote villages in Mozambique, moving through Siberian settlements and Brazil's hinterlands, Outcast travels the margins of society and charts the history of a misunderstood disease. In doing so, it shines new light on the human condition, asking: does our sense of self always rely on the ostracisation of another? 'Shocking, moving and sensitive.' TLS 'Uplifting.' THE TIMES 'Fascinating.' SPECTATOR 'Remarkable.' LITERARY REVIEW 'Gripping.' NATURE 'Remarkable . . . grippingly and humanely recounted.' PHILIPPE SANDS 'It is impossible not to be moved by the lives unfolding in these pages, impossible not to be left transformed and enlightened. ' LEILA ABOULELA WINNER OF THE 2023 RSL GILES ST AUBYN AWARD
