There's a powerful story in here, and I appreciate learning more about Palestinian history. However, I found a lot of the art and the narrative difficult to follow -- it's not always easy to tell what's going on, or why she's telling a particular story -- the narrative just doesn't hold together as well as I would like it to. ( ) There have been a lot of graphic novels recently about the Middle East and the strife there. And here is yet another. This one focuses in so closely on the day-to-day life of a Palestinian refugee in Lebanon that the larger forces buffeting his life and causing misery are left a bit vague. With little insight offered into what makes the Palestinian situation unique, this reader is simply left with the very obvious conclusion that living in a war zone sucks and a smart person gets the hell out of there. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Coming-of-age story about a young boy named Ahmad struggling to find his place in the world. Raised in a refugee camp called Baddawi in northern Lebanon, Ahmad is just one of the thousands of Palestinians who fled their homeland after the war in 1948 established the state of Israel. In this visually arresting graphic novel, Leila Abdelrazaq explores her father's childhood in the 1960s and '70s from a boy's eye view as he witnesses the world crumbling around him and attempts to carry on, forging his own path in the midst of terrible uncertainty.
