ILLUSTRATIONS AND COVER OF THE BOOK by Rami Abbas
Not every trip is the same. Some of us travel for pleasure, to get to know new cultures, to learn a different language or even for love. But Prince's trip was different, it was not planned, he did not consult guides or search for information on the internet: one day he found himself fleeing from the war, from rape. In his journey, he encountered abuse, discrimination, institutional racism, and gender violence. But it was also a learning experience, he learned the resilience and strength necessary to overcome the adversities he had to face, to reach a place where he could live in peace.
Augustin Prince keeps fighting so that he may find his way and eventually reach his dreams. One of those dreams is recorded within these pages: his story, told in the first person, is the story of thousands of people who every year try to find a place they can call “home”.
