Welcome to the traveller's guide to a continent at war, to a catalogue of natural wonders and a working edition of the guide to the Arab spring.
From the writing and observations of Emma Sky, gifted teller of tales and resolver of conflict, and witness at the Chilcot Inquiry into the Iraq war comes an absorbing cornucopia of the politics of civil war, the advent of protest populism and the fomenting of radical ideology.
It is a tale of a traveller faced with a world both tortuous and torturous, in what she labels in a time of monsters,
It is travelogue of the Middle East in revolt
In her prelude Ms Sky helps to stimulate both the serious historian or the armchair observer of world events as she postulates that In a world convulsed on one hand by the horror of ISIS and converserly fixated by the brouhaha of Brexit comes a narrative that shows that the twain worlds of East and West do indeed meet.
Ms Sky compels us into her work through the supposition that the twin travails of a Trump in America and an intensely divided Britain that is in-out of
union with Europe are of the same political making, born out of the ovulation of the gametes of al-Queada terror which cojoin with the insiduous horror of the Islamic State.
What is begat is a conflagration of cataclysmic consequence that segues from regional intensity to ever widening consequence.
This book promises to be is a definitive overview of the complexities of the Middle East with superb descriptive writing that evokes the essence of Africa north of the equator and of the middle east
