The Mauritanian (originally published as Guantánamo Diary) by Larry Siems & Mohamedou Ould Slahi Book Summary

This "profound and disturbing" (New York Times Book Review) bestseller written by a Guantánamo prisoner is now a major feature film starring Tahar Rahim and Jodie Foster.

When The Mauritanian was first published as Guantánamo Diary in 2015—heavily redacted by the U.S. government—Mohamedou Ould Slahi was still imprisoned at the detainee camp in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, despite a federal court ruling ordering his release, and it was unclear when or if he would ever see freedom. In October 2016 he was finally released and reunited with his family. During his fourteen-year imprisonment the United States never charged him with a crime.

Now he is able to tell his story in full, with previously censored material restored. This searing diary is not merely a vivid record of a miscarriage of justice, but a deeply personal memoir—terrifying, darkly humorous, and surprisingly gracious. The Mauritanian is a document of immense emotional power and historical importance.

Devastating and important. I just finished this book and plan to urge everyone I know to read it. I do want to note that the footnotes in the iBook version of this book are incredibly unhelpful and impossible to navigate. In the book itself - footnotes are noted with an asterisk. It is virtually impossible to connect it to the note at the end of the book which is unfortunate as the notes are exceptionally edifying.

The censored parts...ugh. The book is censored on virtually every page. What is the point!? It's so frustrating to navigate. Buy the paper version...based on reviews I've read, it's a more pleasant read.
