The Beekeeper: Rescuing the Stolen Women of Iraq by Dunya Mikhail

5.0

If you don't read a single other book that I ever recommend, please read this one! .

After reading The Beekeeper by Dunya Mikail (March 27, 2018 from New Direction), I now have a deeper insight into the atrocities that are happening in Syria. While it is devastating and heart breaking, this is a necessary read to become informed of what is happening to entire families and communities. The war in Syria has left more than 400,000 people dead or missing and left 1.5 million people with permanent disabilities. In the midst of this massive genocide, there are stories of escape.
