Recenzii
“Everyone should read the testimonies of the Chibok girls who survived the capture. We need to help with efforts to liberate all of them and become more responsible for women and girls’ protection in conflicts.” — Malala Yousafzai
"It's a really fascinating read, gripping as it's certainly been described, and the humanity of the girls that's brought to bear is really interesting, really, really interesting . . . It is really a remarkable story. It is an amazing story." — Christiane Amanpour
"Phew. It is fascinating and gripping." — Archbishop Desmond Tutu
"This intimate and riveting account demonstrates the power of sustained international pressure in the name of human rights. Most importantly, it serves as a testament to the strength of the Chibok girls who resisted their captors and bravely asserted their humanity in the face of violent subjugation." — Nadia Murad, recipient of the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize
“This account of the kidnapping of the Chibok schoolgirls and their courage and fortitude through the unspeakable brutality of their captivity is a nail-biter about survival told with Hitchcockian flair. Packed with their personal testimonies, along with fresh details of the hunt for them by a team of Swiss negotiators, Joe Parkinson and Drew Hinshaw have written a work of brilliant journalism.” — Lesley Stahl, correspondent, 60 Minutes
“Bring Back Our Girls is a journalistic masterclass: a detailed and compelling story of the unsung heroes who won the release of Nigeria’s schoolgirls after the social media circus had moved on.” — Tom Wright, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Billion Dollar Whale
"With this book, Parkinson and Hinshaw remind us why tenacious investigative journalism—and not reporting triggered by Twitteris so essential to democracy. It's a most readable recounting of the immense passion and years of painstaking work that it took to return these kidnapped young girls to their mothers." — Seymour Hersh, Pulitzer-prize winning investigative reporter
"Dramatic and detailed . . . This is a brilliant work of investigative journalism that supplies all the missing puzzle pieces, uncovering for the first time intimate and crucial details about the girls' time in Sambisa forest, and the brave men and women in Abuja and around the world who sacrificed so much to bring them back to their parents." — Helon Habila, Commonwealth Writers Prize and Caine Prize winning novelist
"Gripping." — NPR
"Extraordinary . . . A page-turner of a narrative." — Washington Post
"Illuminating . . . remarkable and humanizing." — Financial Times
“A riveting chronicle of the 2014 kidnapping of a group of Nigerian schoolgirls by the terrorist group Boko Haram . . . . Written with compassion and insight, this deeply investigated account brings renewed attention to an ongoing tragedy.” — Publishers Weekly
"In light of the proliferation of hashtag activism by individuals and corporations following the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020, this exploration of the unintended impact of social media activism is both poignant and relevant." — Kirkus Reviews
"Using diaries kept, at great risk, by two of the girls, [Parkinson and Hinshaw] offer insight into the incredible courage and faith the captives maintained while they endured more than three years of captivity. . . . Readers wishing to learn more about the Chibok girls beyond headlines and viral hashtags, as well as those looking for a better understanding of international relations, will be rewarded in this moving book." — Library Journal
"A brilliant investigation." — Sunday Times (London)
"What the influencers who endorsed #BringBackOurGirls might do, though, is encourage their followers to read this finely written, absorbing book. Not only does it chart how the celebrity Twittersphere impacted one of the poorest corners of the planet, it does the far knottier reporting job of revealing what went on backstage, be it in the Nigerian and US governments, or the minds of Boko Haram commanders." — Telegraph (UK)
"It is difficult to imagine a more thorough and significant piece of reportage, for our troubled world, than this new book." — The Scotsman (Scotland)
"Bring Back Our Girls has a cinematic quality to it, and sometimes feels like it was written in the mold of a Hollywood script. There is no doubt that it has all the elements of a powerful film, and at times I had to put the book down to remind myself that the events I was reading were indeed real." — Tablet magazine
