A Legal Fiction on the Plight of Immigrants after 9/11

Shah Peerally's book, "The Immigration Lawyer: Asylum" is basically a work of fiction that narrates the story of Ahmad who flees Iraq from the clutches of the Iraqi Government and seeks refuge in the US, but ends up finding himself stuck up in a similar situation. It is a story based during the reign of Saddam Hussein, where Ahmed is wrongly suspected by the Iraqi Government of being a CIA agent and is tortured relentlessly. He manages to escape to the US, but while entering California on a valid visa, he is detained on immigration charges and placed under custody. The US Government believes that he is a terrorist.

This book by Shah Peerally is an attempt to address the issues regarding US immigration law and its flaws. In fact, it reflects the sentiments of several immigrants who had to go through the difficult process. Though, this book is a work of fiction, it is more like a guide that perfectly illustrates numerous immigration issues along with the American justice system that always triumphs in the end, especially when those accused are innocent.

"The Immigration Lawyer: Asylum" is currently available on print. Its Kindle version will be available in the next 9 business days. An audio version will also be released soon.
