Welcome to Litsy!

This was an interesting read about a photographer‘s journey in covering a Doctors Without Borders mission in Afghanistan during the mid-1980s. The greatest thing about this graphic novel is how it incorporates the photos from the experience. 4/5

In this book, Olivier Kugler draws and recounts accounts by Syrian refugees.

I always find this type of books highly interesting and eye-opening. What was their life before? Why did they choose to leave their country? What are their hopes for the future? Here are some of the questions that are answered in this book.

This nonfiction graphic memoir brings us in Afghanistan in 1986 with Doctors Without Borders. We follow the experience of Didier Lefèvre, the photographer of the mission.
It's a very interesting and humbling book. The illustrations complete and put into context the photographs. From the organization of the mission to mishaps and medical procedures, this book opens a perfect window into this NGO.

Starting book 2 of #boutofbooks: HOSTAGE is the story of Christophe André, a humanitarian worker with Doctors Without Borders who was kidnapped in Nazran and held for ransom in Chechnya in 1997.

It's a shame this book is too big to carry with me everywhere, but I love the conversations about Afghan culture.
