The last words of this book are 'Have mercy.' There is no more to say. Wolfgang Bauer's impressive and brutally honest depiction of the fates of refugees speaks for itself. -Berthold Merkle, Der Tagesspiegel---------------------- The book shows what the media and politicians have ignored. -ORF (Osterreichischer Rundfunk, Austrian national broadcaster)---------------------- The book affects you on two levels. There is the gripping reportage that brings us very close to the people, and there is also the epilogue's entreating words. Bauer's accusation is powerful. -Sudwest Presse, Ulm
