LETTERS FROM MY MOTHER by Udaya Kanthi Salgadu The story of Sripa, a young Sri Lankan high-school graduate who endured 26 months of forced labor in a household in the USA. With only her mother’s letters to keep her going, and a neighbor whose inquiries lead to her rescue, Sripa finds strength, bravery, and finally the power and self- confidence to become an advocate for the abolition of human trafficking. Based on the true story of a woman who has seen the worst and best of American life.
