nikla88's review against another edition

Un libro che si legge tutto d'un fiato e che ti lascia allo stesso tempo col fiato sospeso. La storia di un ragazzo che senza volerlo è costretto a fuggire da tutto ciò che gli è caro e che ama per rincorrere qualcosa che non sa' neanche cos'è. Un libro perfetto da regalare a Natale, che dà voce ad un punto di vista diverso e che smuove la propria coscienza e i pregiudizi.

Overall, a heartwarming tale about a young boy who escapes the conflicts of Afghanistan and makes his way across Europe, and to safety. The fact that this book is actually a true account of the life of Enaiatollah Akbari is even more staggering - such are the scale of some of the events that occur that it cannot surely be real? But it is. In spots, the text seems simplistic in its language and jumps through some events rapidly…but perhaps that is the point of it, as we hear Enaiatollah’s story through his eyes and words.
