Sinopsis
A GUARDIAN BOOK OF THE YEAR
A thrilling, razor-sharp critique of US foreign policy … Red Birds is an incisive, unsparing critique of war and of Americas role in the destruction of the Middle East. It combines modern and ancient farcical traditions in thrilling wayGuardian
________________
American pilot Major Ellie has crashed his plane in the middle of a desert. Lucky for him theres room for him at the very refugee camp he was supposed to bomb.
Teenage Momo doesnt see it that way: the camp is a trap, not a refuge. His brothers missing, his parents are in a rage, and an aid worker wont stop trying to interview him for her book on the Teenage Muslim Mind.
Savage, irreverent and deliciously dark, Red Birds is a masterful unravelling of intertwined fates in a forgotten war-scape – and a brilliant satire about satire about the absurdity of war and the impossibility of peace.
