One morning on the outskirts of Damascus, two starving friends are walking through their desolate city and come across a familiar street that has been turned to rubble, concrete bridges towering above them like tombs and houses turned inside out.

Of course, zooming in from the generic tragedies of a war to the personal horrors of one man inside it is guaranteed to have great effect. However, I was even more taken aback by this account than I expected to be.

I visited Syria. Before the war started, but still during many of the events described in the book. Moreover, I play the piano every single day since the age of eight. These two things bring the events of this book really close and made me devour the book cover to cover in less than 24 hours.

Well told story, truly incredible account of events and genuine display of bravery and persistence.

I definitely recommend this book to everyone who desperately needs to put a face to the label of refugee. ( )
