Description

In May 2003, journalist Rory McCarthy went to Iraq to cover what was claimed to be the triumphant rebuilding of the country after the American invasion. What he found was a nation in turmoil. From the survivor of one of Saddam's mass graves to the insurgents of Najaf, this book provides an overview of a nation at a turning point in its history. But more than that, it uniquely explores what life is like for the ordinary Iraqi. Far from political spin and army press releases, Rory McCarthy's beautiful and compelling writing takes us inside the homes of the people of Iraq to reveal the human face of conflict.
