They were followed by sinister cannisters falling to the ground, bringing fear and death.\nIt was 1987, and Saddam Hussein had ordered his cousin \"Chemical Ali\" to bombard Joanna's village, Bergalou, with chemical weapons. Temporarily blinded in the attack, Joanna was rescued by her husband, a Kurdish freedom fighter. After being caught in another bombardment and left for dead in the rubble, they managed to flee over the mountains in a harrowing escape.\nNow living in the UK, Joanna has told the story of her eventful life to Jean Sasson, the bestselling chronicler of oppressed women's lives in the Princess trilogy and Mayada.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buy3X.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52911098560736,"sku":"9780553818147_Kitabay Jaipur_64-B2","price":9.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.carouselstore.co.uk\/products\/love-in-a-torn-land-a","provider":"Carousel Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
