The third novel in Yasmina Khadra's bestselling trilogy about
Islamic fundamentalism has the most compelling backdrop of any of
his novels: Iraq in the wake of the American invasion. A young
Iraqi student, unable to attend college because of the war, sees
American soldiers leave a trail of humiliation and grief in his
small village. Bent on revenge, he flees to the chaotic streets of
Baghdad where insurgents soon realize they can make use of his
anger. Eventually he is groomed for a secret terrorist mission
meant to dwarf the attacks of September 11th, only to find himself
struggling with moral qualms. "The Sirens of Baghdad" is a powerful
look at the effects of violence on ordinary people, showing what
can turn a decent human being into a weapon, and how the good in
human nature can resist.
