These photos speak volumes The guarded look suspicious protective of other subjects in the photos is international I think and Roy captures it well Not only do we feel the pain of those curled on the floor but the heat lack of clean water and available food poverty and incapability of the situation is communicated The dichotomy between playful fun mickey mouse and cartoon patterned clothes and the work these children and women are forced into is seen throughout and the knowledge and wariness in children s eyes makes one pause The photos of people in their rooms adn the ones in which subjects are supportive of one another I found most eloquent as they show the facts of the situation comprehensively Well worth your time but not a cheerful book The essays are also very well done 224 These are the faces on the frontline of Cambodia s sex trade Sex slavery is not unique to Cambodia or modern times but the vulnerability and lack of education and opportunities for economic advancement for Cambodia s women and children is heartwrenching More than a few of the subjects were sold into a brothel by family members or friends one girl as young as five though some were manipulated into the industry There are few happy endings but AFESIP does give some hope to a few girls who are learning new trades and or getting some education 224
