The Foreigner's Gift ─ The Americans, the Arabs, and the Iraqis in Iraq
商品資訊
商品簡介
politics and the recipient of the 2006 Bradley Prize for Outstanding
Achievement and the National Humanities Medal of 2006, offers a brilliant,
illuminating, and lyrical portrait of the ongoing struggle for Iraq and of
the American encounter with that volatile Arab land. In a new introduction,
the author discusses the many major events that have taken place since the
publication of the hardcover, including the implications of SaddamA1s
execution, the Baker-Hamilton Commission, and the return to Iraq of General
David Petraeus. He renders unsparingly the growing American disillusionment
with the war and the struggle within Iraq between those keen to hold on to
the promise of the new country called up by AmericaA1s war and others
determined to thwart that promise and overwhelm it with sectarian strife.
Ajami situates the current unrest within the context of IraqA1s recent
history of dictatorship and its rich, diverse cultural heritage. He applies
his incisive political commentary, his broad and deep historical view, his
mastery of the Arabic language and Arabic sources, and his lustrous prose to
every aspect of his subject, wresting a coherent, fascinating, and textured
picture from the media storm of fragmented information. The ForeignerA1s
Gift is the book we all need to read in order to understand what is
happening in Iraq today and what the future might hold for all of us.
