Fabrizio Gatti, is an envoyé spécial for the weekly review, L'Espresso. He has participated in a number of investigations as an undercover reporter. In Bilal (prix Terzani 2008), he slips into the skin of a clandestine Kurdish migrant. In a moving tale of violence and humiliation, he describes this experience. Leaving Dakar for Europe, he crosses the Sahara on a lorry, meets unscrupulous people-smugglers and members of Al’Quaida and, once he arrives in the holding centre at Lampedusa, lives the daily life of asylum-seekers. Three times, he has been detained in holding centres as a pseudoimmigrant. His reports are known throughout the world.
