Sixteen-year-old Jamal's world collapses when war reaches his hometown in Syria. Nights filled with explosions, the whisper of his parents' fearful plans, and the silent understanding that staying means certain death—these are the moments that mark the beginning of his journey. Together with his family, Jamal flees through ruined cities, hostile checkpoints, and treacherous forests. Along the way they encounter betrayal and unexpected allies, face the constant threat of discovery, and cling to the fragile hope of freedom. Told in vivid, cinematic prose, Escape from Syria – A Diary of Flight captures the terror, courage, and resilience of those forced to abandon everything in search of safety. It is not only the story of a boy becoming an adult overnight, but also a universal tale about loss, survival, and the strength to begin anew.
