For eight years, the American naval base at Guantanamo Bay on Cuba has been home to hundreds of men, all Muslim, all detained in the aftermath of the 9/11 and most guilty of nothing more than being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is an unsettling narrative evoking the disorientation central to Guantanamo incarceration and interrogation.
