Not sure if this is the right fit?
Consider Four Years in the Mountains of Kurdistan by Aram Haigaz.
“Haigaz writes from the immediate, teen-eye vantage of loss, hunger, and slow endurance, and the prose tends toward plain, reportorial detail. What works best is its granular, lived testimony: short episodes accumulate into a human record of displacement and everyday care. The book's limitation is its narrow focus and lack of wider analytical framing, so readers seeking political or historical synthesis will feel shortchanged. Repetition of hardship can be exhausting, but the voice remains steady and unadorned throughout.”
