On the Shadow Tracks

In "On the Shadow Tracks," journalist Clare Hammond embarks on a three-month journey across Myanmar, fueled by her discovery of an obscure railway map revealing an intricate network of railways absent from public sources. Over the following five years, she unravels the stories behind these hidden tracks, traveling from the tropical south to conflict-ridden mountain towns, and encountering the rich tapestry of Myanmar's culture and history through its diverse people. This audiobook serves as a compelling travelogue, an insightful exploration of the nation's recent past, and a critical reflection on the impact of Britain's colonial legacy.
