Description

In 2003, award-winning foreign correspondent Hala Jaber went to Iraq to cover the war. Once there, however, she was confronted with Sahra and Hawra, two little girls who’d lost everything. Unable to conceive a child herself, Jaber became emotionally involved with the orphaned girls, one of them badly burned in a bombing. Beautifully written and deeply moving, Jaber offers fresh insight into the situation in Iraq, particularly the plight of women and children caught in war’s crossfire.
