The Boy with Two Lives

When 10-year-old Abbas arrives in England having just fled conscription into the Iranian army and survived almost three months alone in Istanbul waiting for a visa, little does he know that his troubles have only just begun. His cousin packs him off to boarding school, infrequent phone calls are his only contact with his beloved mother, and he eventually finds himself homeless at the age of 13. Abbas’s extraordinary resilience in the face of overpowering odds makes this story, based on true events, inspiring and unforgettable.
