Amazing book! And will be an eyeopener for many. Margaret AtwoodThis moving, eyeopening memoir of an innocent man detained at Guantnamo Bay for fifteen years tells a story of humanity in the unlikeliest of places and an unprecedented look at life at Guantnamo.At the age of 18, Mansoor Adayfi left his home in Yemen for a cultural mission to Afghanistan. He never returned. Kidnapped by warlords and then sold to the US after 9/11, he was disappeared to Guantnamo Bay, where he spent the next 14 years as Detainee #441.Don't Forget Us Here tells two comingofage stories in parallel: a makeshift island outpost becoming the world's most notorious prison and an innocent young man emerging from its darkness. Arriving as a stubborn teenager, Mansoor survived the camp's infamous interrogation program and became a feared and hardened resistance fighter leading prison riots and hunger strikes. With time though, he grew into the man nicknamed 'Smiley Troublemaker': a student, writer, advocate, and historian. While at Guantnamo, he wrote a series of manuscripts he sent as letters to his attorneys, which he then transformed into this vital chronicle, in collaboration with awardwinning writer Antonio Aiello. With unexpected warmth and empathy, Mansoor unwinds a narrative of fighting for hope and survival in unimaginable circumstances, illuminating the limitlessness of the human spirit. And through his own story, he also tells Guantnamo's story, offering an unprecedented window into one of the most secretive places on earth and the peopledetainees and guards alikewho lived there with him.Twenty years after 9/11, Guantnamo remains open, and at a moment of due reckoning, Mansoor Adayfi helps us understand what actually happened thereboth the horror and the beautya stunning record of an experience we cannot afford to forget.
