2021
Excerpts from Chapter 5 of Sarah Shay Mirk's anthology about Guantanamo Bay. One of NY Times' best graphic novels of 2020.
From Abrams Books:
"In Guantánamo Voices, journalist Sarah Mirk and her team of diverse, talented graphic novel artists tell the stories of 10 people whose lives have been shaped and affected by the prison, including former prisoners, lawyers, social workers, and service members. This collection of illustrated interviews explores the history of Guantánamo and the world post-9/11, presenting this complicated partisan issue through a new lens."
“Moving details emerge, as when one detainee narrates his relationship with an iguana, along with profound frustration; in the words of one attorney, ‘The law is a joke.’ The island colors and collection of styles make for a surprisingly artful book.” —New York Times Book Review"
