Guantanamo Diary: The Fully Restored Text

‘You know that I know that you know that I have done nothing,’ I said. ‘You’re holding me because your country is strong enough to be unjust.’”

Mohamedou Ould Slahi

“A vision of hell, beyond Orwell, beyond Kafka” - John Le Carré

The first and only diary written by a Guantánamo detainee during his imprisonment, now with previous censored material restored.

Mohamedou Ould Slahi was imprisoned in Guantánamo Bay in 2002.

There he suffered the worst of what the prison had to offer, including months of sensory deprivation, torture and sexual assault.

In October 2016 he was released without charge.

This is his extraordinary story.
