Opis

This book is about Iraq, now that many say it has begun a long-sought-after democracy. It is very much about this incipient democracy, which has brought freedoms and rights, and chaos and confusion. The author relates her mission of lending her skills to help Iraq progress towards a better future. And it gives an account of her feelings and experiences upon returning to her native city Baghdad, with each new encounter provoking old memories and building new foundations. This work also describes the current Iraq from the Iraqi-American perspective of someone who lived in the United States for three decades and offers thoughts on where Americans and Iraqis are together headed, with their lives intermingled as never before because of the recent war.
