Nice Leng'ete is a Maasai activist and author from Kenya who has dedicated her life to ending female genital mutilation. Her book and audiobook The Girls in the Wild Fig Tree tells her extraordinary personal story — from escaping FGM as a child to becoming an internationally recognised campaigner who has helped save thousands of girls from the practice. Leng'ete's memoir is courageous, powerful and deeply inspiring, and the audiobook is essential listening.
