Other Lands Have Dreams is a literary testimony of the highest order, vividly recording the secret casualties of our era, from the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children inhumanely denied basic medical care to young mothers sealed inside the sterile dungeons of American prisons in the name of the merciless war on drugs.
