Arman is just a boy when he is forced to leave his home and embark on the most extraordinary journey.
Separated from family and friends, he travels across mountains, land and sea to find refuge. After encountering bandits, war and wolves, and surviving a hazardous boat crossing, he arrives at Dover, clinging to the underside of a lorry.
Little did he know, his journey had just begun.
Unable to speak English, Arman battles loneliness, despair and the reawakening of his traumas in this new strange place. Memories of his family haunt him. The dark clouds almost consume him. And still he persists, step-by-step.
What follows is a struggle for self-understanding, and the great strength it takes to overcome the trauma we carry. Running through is the long journey to find peace, and how education is the most powerful tool to seeing one’s life through new eyes.
Arman Azadi translates to hope and freedom, and this is the unforgettable story in pursuit for exactly that, from a child who deserved to live in safety, not flee in fear. Inspiring, heartfelt and transformative, this is one boy’s story of seeking a better life and education, and the marks left by displacement. For fans of I Am Malala, Educated and Butterfly, Arman’s is a powerful new voice you won’t forget.
