ghosthermione's review against another edition
It doesn't feel right to give a star rating to this book. What I will say however is that it should be mandatory reading, somehow, somewhere. It's crushing but full of testimonies about the refugee crisis that we - Europeans -have to hear. I knew some of it but could not fathom the extent. And the complacency of the EU and UN is proven over and over again. I tried recommending it to my colleagues but was surprised to find it hasn't been translated into French (yet). Or perhaps not that surprised...
