“What does the word ‘home’ mean to you?”
When Jonas Poher Rasmussen first met Amin Nawabi as a teenager in his small Danish village the two soon became close, but his friend’s past life in Afghanistan remained a mystery. Now in his thirties and a successful academic, Amin is ready to marry his boyfriend and build a life together, but the shadow of his past hangs over his future. Written in close collaboration with Amin (a pseudonym), Flee expands upon key moments in his life each drawn from a series of interviews Rasmussen conducted with his friend over the course of several years.
