Baghdad Burning II by Riverbend

Riverbend, the Iraqi woman whose articulate, even poetic prose packs an emotional punch (The New York Times), continues her dispatches from her native Baghdad.

Interweaving commentary on major events since October 2004 to March 2006, with compelling stories about her own life as well as her family's daily struggles, this is journalism from ground zero recording both occupation and insurgency.
Riverbend is the pseudonym of a woman who in 2003 began writing a blog relating her first hand experiences of the US invasion and then occupation of her native Iraq. Once a computer programmer in a modern, secular state, Riverbend discusses with honesty and acute political awareness the changes that resulted in the rise of religious fundamentalism.
