Highly regarded around the world, Ocalan led the Kurdish freedom struggle as the head of the PKK from its foundation in 1978 until his abduction by the Turkish state in 1999. He has, so far, spent twenty-five years in captivity. In this graphic novel we learn, in his own words, what Ocalan''s childhood was like in the partially Kurdish areas of Eastern Turkey and how his political awareness and commitment grew as a student in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Expanding on these, the second part of the book gives us a wider consideration of the issues and policies around women''s freedom, democratic confederalism and paints an inspiring picture of one of the
