A review by sanjee_b
The Sirens of Baghdad by Yasmina Khadra
I hate all forms of violence, and this book reaffirmed why I do. A look at experiences that turn a mild young man into a fundamentalist bent on revenge, this is an eye-opening look at the war in Iraq from the point of view of a young Bedouin boy. Powerfully told with nothing held back, it shows the perspective that's just not available on mainstream news media. Absolutely worth reading.
