In the Sea There are Crocodiles

In the Sea There Are Crocodiles recounts the harrowing journey of ten-year-old Enaiatollah Akbari, who finds himself abandoned in Pakistan after fleeing Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Over five years, Enaiat navigates perilous borders and treks through Iran, Turkey, and Greece, ultimately seeking asylum in Italy by the age of fifteen. This poignant narrative, shaped by his collaboration with Italian novelist Fabio Geda, masterfully preserves Enaiat's childlike perspective, revealing an inspiring tale of resilience, hope, and survival amidst heart-wrenching challenges.
