About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of On the Front Line with the Women Who Fight Back, written and read by Stacey Dooley.

Put yourself in their shoes.

In 2007, Stacey Dooley was a 20-something working in fashion retail. She was selected to take part in the BBC series Blood, Sweat and T-Shirts, which saw her live and work alongside Indian factory workers making clothes for the UK high street. This sparked her series of hugely popular investigations, establishing her as one of BBC3's most celebrated presenters.

Through the course of her documentary making, Stacey has covered a variety of topics, from sex trafficking in Cambodia to Yazidi women fighting back in Syria. At the core of her reporting are incredible women in extraordinary and scarily ordinary circumstances - from sex workers in Russia to victims of domestic violence in Honduras.

In her first audiobook, On the Front Line with the Women Who Fight Back, Stacey draws on her encounters with these brave and wonderful women, using their experiences as a vehicle to explore issues at the centre of female experience. From gender equality and domestic violence to sex trafficking and sexual identity, Stacey weaves these global strands together in an exploration of what it is to be women in the world today.

Stacey’s book is much like her it’s compassionate non biased and completely honest . Some of the stories are horrific and hard to listen to but they are also a stark reminder of how different our worlds can be. Excellent book. Really enjoyed it as it is informative and educational.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Stacey narrate her book. She is a warm, caring person who is very relatable and easy to listen to. I have watched all of Stacey's documentaries, so knew the background of the stories. For me the difficulties that face Canada's indigenous women stood out, and i thought the subject matter was conveyed very well.

Very informative.
