  • Are the characters in the book made up but put in a real life setting?
  • How was the author able to personally acquire and learn about the stories of people who were going through the settings in the book?
  • Are the children in the book still alive? ( I have not read the whole book yet )
  • Why was the book "Refugee" made and what was its purpose?
  • When was the book made, and was the author perhaps a journalist?
  • Will there be a book after Refugee, "Refugee 2"
  • Who was the character that suffered the most?
  • Why is not his book well known?
