SHORTLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE 2016 SHORTLISTED FOR THE SAMUEL
JOHNSON PRIZE 2015 Emma Sky was working for the British Council
during the invasion of Iraq, when the ad went around calling for
volunteers. Appalled at what she saw as a wrongful war, she signed
up, expecting to be gone for months. Instead, her time in Iraq
spanned a decade, and became a personal odyssey so unlikely that it
could be a work of fiction. Quickly made civilian representative of
the CPA in Kirkuk, and then political advisor to General Odierno,
Sky became valued for her outspoken voice and the unique
perspective she offered as an outsider. In her intimate, clear-eyed
memoir of her time in Iraq, a young British woman among the men of
the US military, Emma Sky provides a vivid portrait of this most
controversial of interventions, exploring how and why the Iraq
project failed.
