Description

Guantanamo Boy tells the story of Khalid, a 15-year-old Muslim boy from Rochdale who is abducted while on holiday with his family. He is taken to Guantanamo Bay and held without charge, facing cruel circumstances that crush his hopes and dreams.

In this powerful and thought-provoking novel, Anna Perera explores the experiences of an innocent young man caught up in a complex web of politics and prejudice. As Khalid struggles to understand what's happening to him, he is forced to confront the harsh realities of his situation.
