Middle East must-reads

About a month ago, Q&Q’s B.C. correspondent, Cheri Hanson, reported on the elaborate plans of The Tyee, an online B.C. newspaper, to expand its book coverage. So far, it’s been pretty good stuff. Lots of B.C.-oriented pieces, like Crawford Kilian’s “BC Books No One Has Written” piece, which included a fair number of solid suggestions. And more recently, just in time for, er, war, Deborah Campbell has compiled a list of Middle East must-reads. They range from Marjan Satrapi’s Persepolis to My Name Is Rachel Corrie, the controversial play based on the writings of the American activist who was killed in Gaza.
