Once Upon a Time in Iraq by James Bluemel, Renad Mansour

Really interesting and good to see a range of voices from different people affected by this conflict.
However women’s voices are barely present and the impact on them, particularly under ISIS occupation, should have been explored much more in my opinion.
I also think that each chapter could have done with more expository prologue just giving an overview of key players like prominent parliamentarians or milita groups being discussed.
Overall though this was a good introduction and very engaging.
