The Refugee Handbook

In Michael Lato’s The Refugee Handbook: Notes from the Road to a Life of Choices, the author shares the heartfelt true story of his decision as an American to help his partner, Iraqi-born Khaled escape Turkey and seek asylum as a refugee in Amsterdam.

The recounting of their desperate story hits the reader like a steam train as it enlightens readers for possibly the first time on the realities of seeking a life with choices and without persecution.

Robust in his storytelling, this biographical account stands at just 108 pages, but as a writer and essayist, Michael Lato makes every word count in his wildly-compelling, life-changing tale. 

His book is also a salutary reminder that the images of refugees we constantly see on our news feeds are indeed individuals with their unique backstory and that with an empathetic and supportive heart we can achieve almost anything.
