À propos de ce contenu audio

 Arman Azadi now writes under his given name, Mir Rahimi. Future editions of this book and subsequent works will be published under the name Mir Rahimi.

Arman is just a boy when he is forced to leave his home and embark on the most extraordinary journey.

Separated from family and friends, he travels across mountains, land and sea to find refuge. After encountering bandits, war and wolves, and surviving a hazardous boat crossing, he arrives at Dover, clinging to the underside of a lorry.

Little did he know, his journey had just begun.

Unable to speak English, Arman battles loneliness, despair and the reawakening of his traumas in this new strange place. Memories of his family haunt him. The dark clouds almost consume him. And still he persists, step-by-step.

What follows is a struggle for self-understanding, and the great strength it takes to overcome the trauma we carry. Running through is the long journey to find peace, and how education is the most powerful tool to seeing one's life through new eyes.

This is the unforgettable, heartfelt and transformative story, from a child who deserved to live in safety, not flee in fear. Arman's is a powerful new voice you won't forget and Across Mountains, Land and Sea the perfect book for fans of I Am Malala, Educated and Butterfly.©2024 Mir Rahimi (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited Aventuriers, explorateurs et survie Culturel et régional

Commentaires

This book helps us make sense of the human condition. It's a courageous and energetic exploration that invites us to understand more about the world, and our own experiences. Azadi elucidates complex situations with poetic grace and impact.
The clean narrative delivers brutal realities. I was left reeling at one boy's journey, his courage, the unflinching honesty. It is a timely work and an essential read. Full of humanity and grace.
What Mir's memoir tells us is how he walked that unbelievably challenging course with a humility and thoughtfulness that is both humbling and inspiring. It is vital we all learn this lesson from Mir's story. We must come together to replace the endless war cycle that leads too many victims to justify revenge and retribution with a vision for building the just peace we all deserve, especially Mir and his fellow Afghans.
A poignant and powerful read
