Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book offers a profound exploration of the historical and contemporary tensions between the West and Islamic societies, drawing from the author's travels in the late 1990s. Through essays that blend historical analysis with personal narratives, it delves into life in conflict zones such as Sarajevo, Algeria, the West Bank, Gaza, and Chechnya. By examining the evolution of Western perceptions of Islam from the 17th century to the Gulf War, it highlights the ongoing ideological, political, and cultural confrontations that define these complex relationships.
