"The spring continued into the summer like always. To most, it was not different from any other year. People grew older, couples got married, some had children and others, like Yakup, lost their fathers."The Boy Who Could Swimis a work of literary fiction. It is the story of a boy who is forced to leave the people he loves and the place he calls home in Afghanistan. On his long journey toward Europe, he is faced with numerous challenges that he is forced to overcome.The novel is based on interviews with refugees. It is also a personal tale. The author witnessed warlords fighting in Afghanistan, he was detained in Iran and was caught in the midst of riots and police violence in Greece.The Boy Who Could Swimis a story of loss, hopes, shattered dreams and human resilience.
