SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION
SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA BIOGRAPHY AWARD SHORTLISTED FOR THE
NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FOR AUTOBIOGRAPHY WINNER OF THE
SLIGHTLY FOXED BEST FIRST BIOGRAPHY PRIZE ONE OF THE NEW YORK
TIMES' TOP 10 BOOKS OF 2016 The Return is at once a universal and
an intensely personal tale. It is an exquisite meditation on how
history and politics can bear down on an individual life. And yet
Hisham Matar's memoir isn't just about the burden of the past, but
the consolation of love, literature and art. It is the story of
what it is to be human. Hisham Matar was nineteen when his father
was kidnapped and taken to prison in Libya. He would never see him
again. Twenty-two years later, the fall of Gaddafi meant he was
finally able to return to his homeland. In this moving memoir, the
author takes us on an illuminating journey, both physical and
psychological; a journey to find his father and rediscover his
country.
