Description
Robert Fisk's final work is a powerful and unflinching account of the Middle East over the last twenty years. Picking up where his previous book, The Great War of Civilisation, left off, Fisk examines the aftermath of the Iraq invasion in 2005, as well as the Arab uprisings and the Syrian civil war.
Through passionate and engaging journalism, historical analysis and eyewitness reporting, Fisk condemns the West's ongoing hypocrisy and interference while revealing the horrific truth of life on the ground. This is a compelling narrative that exposes the inescapable consequences of colonial oppression and violence in the region.
A postscript by Nelofer Pazira-Fisk and a foreword by Patrick Cockburn add depth to this important work, which serves as a warning about the devastating effects of war and a call for greater understanding and action.
