Why I'm reading this

I'm a subscriber to the Daily Pnut newsletter, a brief overview of the previous day's news. It's the only news I consume. This is one of the books suggested in that newsletter.

My take

Really disturbing yet important book. I read the redacted version and midway through saw that the un-redacted version is now also available, so I purchased that to see what content was redacted. Humanity shows through this devastating account of captivity at the hands of the U.S. Government.

Listen to famous people read sections from Guantánamo Diary.
