In weeks after the September 11 attacks, 18-year-old Mansoor Adayfi was kidnapped by Afghan militia and sold to US forces for bounty money. After months of interrogations, he was sent to the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, as one of its first prisoners. Like the nearly 800 other men imprisoned at Guantanamo, Adayfi didn’t know why he was imprisoned or for how long. He had never seen a skyscraper and couldn’t imagine what the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center looked like, much less how they were destroyed.

This is a Captivating Listen!
Revisado: 05-09-24
Full disclosure: I had a minor contribution to this project. That said, I had no idea what the final project would look like— or sound like—and this is beyond my wildest dreams. I’m quite familiar with Guantanamo and didn’t think I could be so drawn into an audio book about it — but I couldn’t walk away from this. The story is compelling, the performance is riveting, and I listened to the entire book in one sitting. I cannot recommend this enough.
