Set Free – “from one Emma to another”

Written by in Wednesday Words & Music

Monday 27 January 2025, 1.11pm

This week we discuss the extraordinary memoir ‘Set Free’ by Emma Slade / Lopen Ani Pema Deki, in which an ordinary woman from Whitstable experiences a horrifying hostage situation whilst on a business trip in Jakarta. Her journey from investment banking to Buddhism and charity work is detailed and it’s truly amazing. We play some music as well!
