Description
“Everyone in the world should read this book. Not just because it
contains an amazing story, or because it's our moral, bleeding-heart
duty, or because it's clearly written. We should read it to learn about
the world and about what it means to be human.― ―Washington Post“
A breathtaking and unselfpitying account of how a gentle spirit survives
a childhood from which all innocence has suddenly been sucked out. It's
a truly riveting memoir.― ―Time“Beah is a gifted writer. . . Read
his memoir and you will be haunted . . . It's a high price to pay, but
it's worth it.― ―Newsweek.com“Deeply moving, even uplifting
…Beah's story, with its clear-eyed reporting and literate
particularity--whether he's dancing to rap, eating a coconut or running
toward the burning village where his family is trapped--demands to be
read.― ―People (Critic's Choice, Four stars)“Beah's memoir, A Long
Way Gone (Farrar, Straus and Giroux), is unforgettable testimony that
Africa's children--millions of them dying and orphaned by preventable
diseases, hundreds of thousands of them forced into battle--have eyes to
see and voices to tell what has happened. And what voices! How is it
possible that 26-year-old Beah, a nonnative English speaker, separated
from his family at age 12, taught to maim and to kill at 13, can sound
such notes of ­family happiness, of friendship under duress, of quiet
horror? No outsider could have written this book, and it's hard to
imagine that many ­insiders could do so with such acute vision, stark
language, and tenderness. It is a heart-rending achievement.―
―Melissa Fay Greene, Elle“When Beah is finally approached about the
possibility of serving as a spokesperson on the issue of child soldiers,
he knows exactly what he wants to tell the world: 'I would always tell
people that I believe children have the resilience to outlive their
sufferings, if given a chance.Others may make the same assertions, but
Beah has the advantage of stating them in the first person. That makes A
Long Way Gone all the more gripping.― ―Christian Science Monitor“In
place of a text that has every right to be a diatribe against Sierra
Leone, globalization or even himself, Beah has produced a book of such
self-effacing humanity that refugees, political fronts and even death
squads resolve themselves back into the faces of mothers, fathers and
siblings. A Long Way Gone transports us into the lives of thousands of
children whose lives have been altered by war, and it does so with a
genuine and disarmingly emotional force.― ―Minneapolis Star-

Tribune“What Beah saw and did during [the war] has haunted him ever
since, and if you read his stunning and unflinching memoir, you'll be
haunted, too . . . It would have been enough if Ishmael Beah had merely
survived the horrors described in A Long Way Gone. That he has written
this unforgettable firsthand account of his odyssey is harder still to
grasp. Those seeking to understand the human consequences of war, its
brutal and brutalizing costs, would be wise to reflect on Ishmael Beah's
story.― ―Philadelphia Inquirer“Beah speaks in a distinctive voice
, and he tells an important story.― ―The Wall Street
Journal“Hideously effective in conveying the essential horror of his
experiences.― ―Kirkus Reviews“Extraordinary . . . A ferocious and
desolate account of how ordinary children were turned into professional
killers.― ―The Guardian UK“A Long Way Gone is one of the most
important war stories of our generation. The arming of children is among
the greatest evils of the modern world, and yet we know so little about
it because the children themselves are swallowed up by the very wars
they are forced to wage. Ishmael Beah has not only emerged intact from
this chaos, he has become one of its most eloquent chroniclers. We
ignore his message at our peril.― ―Sebastian Junger, author of A
Death in Belmont and A Perfect Storm“This is a beautifully written
book about a shocking war and the children who were forced to fight it.
Ishmael Beah describes the unthinkable in calm, unforgettable language;
his memoir is an important testament to the children elsewhere who
continue to be conscripted into armies and militias.― ―Steve Coll,
author of Ghost Wars: The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan, and
Bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to September 10, 2001, winner of the
2005 Pulitzer Prize for general Nonfiction“This is a wrenching,
beautiful, and mesmerizing tale. Beah's amazing saga provides a haunting
lesson about how gentle folks can be capable of great brutalities as
well goodness and courage. It will leave you breathless.― ―Walter
Isaacson, author of Benjamin Franklin: An American Life“A Long Way
Gone hits you hard in the gut with Sierra Leone's unimaginable brutality
and then it touches your soul with unexpected acts of kindness. Ishmael
