by Nuha al-Radi - £9.99  Saqi Books (2003)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780863563669 | ISBN 10: 086356366x

Iraqi artist Nuha al-Radi began her diaries during the 1991 Gulf War; they continued during the bleak years under sanctions, depicting the difficulties of day-to-day survival but also the funny and macabre goings-on about town. She records the transformation of a country where only a few years earlier the main problem facing Iraqi children had been obesity; but what emanates most vibrantly from these personal tales is the spirit of endurance and a celebration of the smallest of life\'s joys
