An absolute must-read, this graphic novel is thought-provoking, profound, sensitive and totally gripping.
Story of the hazardous journey across land an sea taken by so many with hopes for a new life in Europe......so many die trying to make it. The story jumps about between now and then alot. Might read better if the 'thens' were read before the 'nows'
