Rolling blackouts : dispatches from Turkey, Syria, and Iraq

Glidden, Sarah2016
Books, Manuscripts
Cartoonist Sarah Glidden follows up her acclaimed debut, 'How to Understand Israel in 60 Days or Less', with this book, which details her two-month long journey through Turkey, Iraq, and Syria. Glidden accompanies her two friends reporters and founders of the journalistic non-profit the Seattle Globalist as they research stories on the Iraq War's effect on the Middle East and, specifically, the war's refugees. Joining them is a former Marine and childhood friend of one of the journalists whose deployment to Iraq in 2007 adds an unexpected and sometimes unwelcome viewpoint, both to the people they come across and perhaps even themselves. The crew works their way through the region with the goal of asking civilians, refugees, and officials: who are you?
