"harry potter is a popular title among some of the detainee population," said the librarian, a civilian contractor identified only as "lorie" who works at the prison camp for foreign terrorism suspects at the u.s. naval base in cuba.
lorie said the popularity of the best-selling harry potter books, which recount the adventures of a boy wizard as he triumphs over the powers of evil, was matched only by the prisoners' passion for agatha christie.
the guantanamo bay prison -- which has come under fierce attack by human rights groups for its treatment and indefinite detention of prisoners -- holds about 510 suspects from 40 countries. most are from afghanistan and arab states.
