JOURNEY. | ABDUL. MUSA ADAM

When he is just 7 years old, the army kills Abdul‘s entire family and burns his home in Darfur. He flees to a refugee camp in #Chad. Via Lybia (another war) he manages to cross the Mediterranean and make it to England, a young boy with PTSD, all alone in the world. Today he is a British citizen and jockey of royal horses. Like his journey, his story is hard & emotional.

Librarybelle What a harrowing journey 2y
Cinfhen This was an emotional read but also hopeful @Librarybelle ♥️ 2y
BarbaraBB @Librarybelle You can say so. And so many young Africans who try to do the same don‘t succeed. This testimony feels really important 💔 2y
Megabooks Wow. That does sound very emotional. 2y

Another powerful memoir read for #ReadingAfrica22 - Abdul Musa Adam was only 6 years old when his entire family, except for a 3 year old brother is killed by insurgents in #Sudan. Only 2 adults survived the massacre and the 4 flee by foot to #Chad. In Chad Abdul becomes separated from his brother as he journeys to #Libya then France & eventually UK. This is an amazing book of courage, resilience and unspeakable experiences. Inspiring & emotional.

Cinfhen I found this memoir really touching & informative. I probably learnt the less about Chad but that‘s a tough country to find books for so I‘m going with it @BarbaraBB 2y
