You missed the book, may be because you don't judge a book by its cover :lol2:

It is unfortunate to know the plight of civillians their. I am sure this book conveys this message well. Congratulations for your wonderful review!!!!
Indeed. This anthology has powerful commentaries on pertinent issues in the Middle East. I appreciate this comment. Thank you!

Latest Review: Enlightenment for the Things that Really Matter by Mark Gumbrell

The specific mention of impactful plays, such as "The Several Beheadings of Ashraf Fayadh" and "The Ship No One Wanted (A Monologue)," creates an expectation of powerful storytelling and emotional depth. Overall, this is an informative review.
