A portion of the proceeds of this book will be donated to the Somaly Mam Foundation. A riveting, raw, and beautiful memoir of tragedy and hope Born in a village deep in the Cambodian forest, Somaly Mam was sold into sexual slavery by her grandfather when she was twelve years old. For the next decade she was shuttled through the brothels that make up the sprawling sex trade of Southeast Asia. Trapped in this dangerous and desperate world, she suffered the brutality and horrors of human trafficking—rape, torture, deprivation—until she managed to escape with the help of a French aid worker.

In January 2008, Roy went to Cambodia to spearhead Traffik, a project that would expose the grave reality of women trapped in the sex industry. Inspired by Somaly Mam, a former sex-slave who worked at reintegrating these women back into society, Roy began the emotionally taxing work of photographing the victims. With access to both the brothels and rehabilitation centres, Roy captured the powerful stories of rape, girls being sold by their mothers, bartered for, exchanged and sold across borders. These images attempt to give them a voice.

«Mi chiamo Somaly; o, per lo meno, così mi chiamo adesso. Come tutti, in Cambogia, di nomi ne ho avuti parecchi. Un nome deriva da una scelta provvisoria, lo si cambia come si cambia vita se la sfortuna si accanisce contro di noi, per esempio. Ma non mi ricordo bene dei nomi che ho avuto quando ero piccola. Del resto, non ricordo quasi niente della mia prima infanzia; non so granché delle mie origini e ho ricostruito a posteriori, da vaghi ricordi, quel minimo di storia che sto per raccontarvi...» Nata nella poverissima campagna cambogiana, dove i genitori arrivano a vendere i propri figli all’età di cinque o sei anni per pochi soldi, Somaly Mam, oggi trentacinquenne, ha vissuto parte...

We have entered a ‘post-truth era’, in which, Daniel J. Boorstin notes, ‘believability’ has become an acceptable substitute for ‘truth’, and ‘manifold deceptions of our culture’ are difficult to separate from ‘its few enduring truths’. In this era, communities and individuals may feel routinely duped, cheated or betrayed. Though truth may be considered intrinsically valuable, deception may sometimes be useful or necessary. Sometimes there is pleasure in the spectacle of deception. The essays in this volume address a variety of areas, coming from different disciplines and methodological approaches: what unites them is the notion of deception. Deception is not just one thing: it can be used for personal liberation and expression; it can be use as a tool of state oppression and sometimes it is purely entertainment. We encounter deception every day of our lives: these essays explore some the ways in which we do.
