Syrian notebooks : inside the Homs Uprising January 16-February 2, 2012 / Jonathan Littell ; translated by Charlotte Mandell.

Littell, Jonathan, 1967- (Author). Littell, Jonathan, 1967- Carnets de Homs. English. (Added Author). Mandell, Charlotte, (translator.).

Summary:

"In 2012, Jonathan Littell went to the heart of the Syrian conflict, embedding himself with the Free Syria-Army in the historic city of Homs. He watched from the front line as the city was ruthlessly pummeled by Assad's forces before it finally surrendered. His urgent notebooks of what he saw on the ground speak directly of the horrors of the civil war that continues today. Out of the chaos, Littell bears witness to the lives and the hopes of freedom fighters. Syrian Notebooks is the most close-up account of the war, and will be seen as a classic account of war reportage"--Provided by publisher.
