Remainder mark. *** ABOUT THIS BOOK: At only twenty-five, Michael Hastings arrives in Baghdad to cover the war in Iraq for Newsweek. Back in New York, Hastings had fallen in love with Andi Parhamovich. A year into their courtship, Andi follows Michael to Iraq, taking a job as an aid worker. As Hastings charts their war-zone romance he gives us a window into life in Baghdad-the chaos, the violence, the never-ending threats of bomb and mortar attacks and the ever-changing front lines of battle. But then this modern love story takes a tragic turn. Returning from a dangerous mission in one of Baghdad's worst neighbourhoods, Andi's convoy is ambushed. Amid bullets and grenades, Andi doesn't stand a chance. Searing, unflinching and revelatory, I Lost My Love in Baghdad is both a raw and brilliantly observed account of a hopeless war and a heartbreaking story of one life lost to it. *** Quantity Available: 4.
