About this book
Picking flowers on dusty roads' is a book about Burma and some of its people. It's about learning to care, give and coming to grips with one's own hypocrisy as well as inner strength. It's also a book about loving and laughing, about being a mother and the things motherhood can teach you about politics, values and God. The book is witty, humorous, serious and inspiring. It will move the readers as they read the stories of some of the people that have impacted Oddny deeply. They may be some of the people she has met in Burma, her own staff, her husband or children-even her dog. In her book she writes about themes that will challenge and shock, but she is able to make it relevant to readers who are not familiar with Burma, refugee issues, faith, politics, or family life. She mixes her thoughts on righteousness and faith well with reflections on motherhood and daily activities, writing in a way that most people can relate to the issues.
