NORTHEASTERN LAW — Mansoor was only eighteen years old when he left Yemen, was kidnapped by warlords, then trapped in Guantánamo prison for fourteen years. In both beautiful and horrific detail we witness a child grow to manhood behind the decaying walls of one of the most secretive prisons in the world. Despite torture and a denial of the most basic human rights, this is a beautiful story of hope, perseverance and triumph. This book encompasses Islamophobia, human rights violations, and prison reform.
