Riassunto

Alan Johnston was the last western journalist living in Gaza. When he was kidnapped, millions of people throughout the world expressed their anger and determination to see him set free.
This volume is a selection of the finest journalism from his three-year posting in Gaza, together with a moving account of his time in captivity and his reflections since his return to freedom, and earlier dispatches from Afghanistan and beyond.

Recensione:

What shines through, even in horrific moments, is Johnston’s balance, decency and humour.” Bloomberg

"Johnston distills the nightmare into about sixty vitally exciting pages, especially moving on the mind control strategies Johnston devised in the dark, and on the comfort he took from messages of support heard on the World Service."-Evening Standard
