Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. 241 pages. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's quarter black paper with silver lettering to spine over red boards in original pictorial wrappers. Translated by Muhayman Jamil. Review copy with material laid in. First edition. This haunting coming-of-age story about a girl growing up in wartime Iraq was the subject of heated controversy when it was published in the Middle East; now in English, it offers American readers a rare chance to experience an Iraqi childhood. The frank, determined narrator is a schoolgirl living in a small town in the Iraqi countryside when the book opens. Torn between the cultures of her parents, she loves the simple pleasures of provincial life in her father's native land but, at the urging of her English mother, she is thrown into the study of Western music and ballet and becomes a devoted dancer by the time the family relocates to Baghdad. Even as the city around her is transformed by the blackouts and deprivations of the war between Iran and Iraq, she propels herself passionately through the full range of teenage discovery. The death of her father, her first love affair, and her mother's unexpected illness carry her into adulthood and ultimately to London, where she confronts, with surprising results, the other half of her EastWest legacy. A Sky So Close is a captivating look at contemporary Iraq from the inside outa stunning re-creation of the surreality of life during wartime, and the story of a young woman coming to terms with the seemingly unbridgeable cultures from which she is formed. Condition: Fine in like jacket.
