Description
Baddawi is a powerful and poignant graphic novel that tells the story of a young boy's journey to find his place in the world. Written from a unique boy's-eye view, it explores the childhood of the author's father, who was raised in the refugee camp of Baddawi in northern Lebanon. The book follows Ahmad's determination to pursue education and opportunity, echoing the struggles and resilience of the Palestinian people. Born into a community that has faced displacement and hardship, Ahmad's story is one of hope and perseverance in the face of adversity. Through its striking visuals and powerful narrative, Baddawi sheds light on a little-known chapter in history, offering a deeply personal and relatable account of life in a refugee camp.
