”A thrilling, razor-sharp critique of US foreign policy. `Red Birds` is an incisive, unsparing critique of war and of America`s role in the destruction of the Middle East. It combines modern and ancient farcical traditions in thrilling way” GuardianAmerican pilot Major Ellie has crashed his plane in the middle of a desert. Lucky for him there`s room for him at the very refugee camp he was supposed to bomb.Teenage Momo doesn`t see it that way: the camp is a trap, not a refuge. His brother`s missing, his parents are in a rage, and an aid worker won`t stop trying to interview him for her book on the Teenage Muslim Mind.Savage, irreverent and deliciously dark, `Red Birds` is a masterful unravelling of intertwined fates in a forgotten war-scape - and a brilliant satire about satire about the absurdity of war and the impossibility of peace.
