Description: Hisham MatarMy FriendsKhaled and Mustafa meet at university in Edinburgh: two Libyan eighteen-year-olds expecting to return home after their studies. In a moment of recklessness and courage, they travel to London to join a demonstration in front of the Libyan embassy. When government officials open fire on protestors in broad daylight, both friends are wounded, and their lives forever changed.Over the years that follow, Khaled, Mustafa and their friend Hosam, a writer, are bound together by their shared history. If friendship is a space to inhabit, theirs becomes small and inhospitable when a revolution in Libya forces them to choose between the lives they have created in London and the lives they left behind.Signed by Hisham Matar to the title pageWinner of The Orwell Prize for Political Fiction Longlisted for the Booker Prize A fine, unread copy of a first edition, first impression hardback in a fine, unclipped dustjacket which has been enclosed in a clear, removable protective cover. published - Viking, 2024 All books are swathed in biodegradable bubble wrap and posted in strong, custom made book boxes to ensure undamaged delivery
