The Illusions of Freedom invites us to reconsider what freedom really is and what are its costs. The book chronicles the author’s life experiences and the journey that led to receiving a scholarship, highlighting her reflections on ambition, past decisions, and personal growth. Is freedom not something that is allowed and organised by others? Can we speak of freedom when the most democratic of societies are ridden with ideological manipulation? In dealing with such questions, the author takes us on a very moving personal journey from naiveté to maturity and realisation. Is freedom an illusion?
