Books about Baghdad
Hi All!
I have been reading a lot through the selections of most readers here. I have noticed that almost all books read about Iraq, were written by non Iraqis. Being an English writing Iraqi author, that has sold over 16,000 copies worldwide. I would love it if you could read one of my novels next time when it comes to Iraq.
A quick look at my novels:
The Gardener of Baghdad
"Two people, one city, different times; connected by a memoir. Can love exist in a city destined for decades of misery?"
Adnan leads a weary existence as a bookshop owner in modern-day, war-torn Baghdad, where bombings, corruption and assault are everyday occurrences and the struggle to survive has suffocated the joy out of life for most. But when he begins to clean out his bookshop of forty years to leave his city in search of somewhere safer, he comes across the story of Ali, the Gardener of Baghdad, Adnan rediscovers through a memoir handwritten by the gardener decades ago that beauty, love and hope can still exist, even in the darkest corners of the world.

Baghdad: The Final Gathering
This heartfelt novel spans through five decades in this once peaceful city.
"Wars, an embargo, and forbidden love in this once peaceful city...."
With the drums of war just weeks away, Omar invites all those closest to his heart for lunch at his lavish villa overlooking the Tigris River of Baghdad. He can't help but smile at the faces that have graced his eventful life that spans from an interesting childhood, the two Gulf Wars, and the inhumane embargo that crippled the nation. Loved ones come together, probably for the last time, in the city their ancestors called Baghdad or Baghdadu, "God’s Gift."
Memories upon memories linger in Omar's head. He has survived times of struggle, holding on to hope and love along the way. As he reflects on his journey, as a man destined to live a hard life in tumultuous times, he ponders a clouded future, on the brink of unknown change.
