Shalash the Iraqi by Shalash
Don Quixote, Tristram Shandy, Catch-22 . . . and Shalash the Iraqi. A samizdat success, this madcap serial novel started life as a pseudonymous blog written live by Shalash during and after the Second Iraq War. It delights readers and sheds light on Iraq in equal measure.
