Outcast
In Search of Leprosy, a Misunderstood Disease
Paperback EN 2026 9780571384310Samenvatting
**A TELEGRAPH BOOK OF THE YEAR**
Encountering the last leprosarium in Europe and remote villages in Mozambique, moving through Siberian settlements and Brazil’s hinterlands, Outcast travels the margins of society and charts the history of a misunderstood disease.
In doing so, it shines new light on the human condition, asking: does our sense of self always rely on the ostracisation of another?
