Fabio Geda – In the Sea There Are Crocodiles (2010)

[Nel mare ci sono i coccodrilli]

Fabio Geda e Enaiatollah Akbari

When Enaiatollah Akbari is only ten, his mother sneaks him across the border from Afghanistan to Pakistan, leaving him with nothing but three life-altering rules and the hope for a future free from the Taliban. Fabio Geda, Italian writer, reconstructs Enaiatollah’s five-year trek through Iran, Turkey, and Greece, capturing the world as seen through the eyes of a child. Upon his arrival in Italy, he finds a way to contact his mother.
