Item:326026077942The Weight of a Mustard Seed by Wendell Steavenson 2009 LN. Like new and unused. Pages clean and unmarked. No cover wear. Images on listing, are of this book. PAPERBACK ______________ If you are unable to protect yourself
from a tyrant, how can you protect your family? And how does a proud
man live with that knowledge? Reminiscent in part of "Stasiland" and
"The Bookseller of Kabul", this is the story of one family's struggle to
survive the iniquities of Saddam Hussein's savage dictatorship. It is a
career-defining book for Wendell Steavenson. In "The Weight of a
Mustard Seed", Wendell Steavenson tells the story of General Kamel
Sachet, a decorated hero of the long Iran-Iraq war and a favourite of
Saddam Hussein's. As Steavenson reveals the emotional and psychological
scars the Sachet family suffer as a result of decades spent living with
war and repression, she reaches towards the heart of a previously
unspoken story of Iraq: a once prosperous nation, reduced by Hussein's
megalomania and paranoia to bankruptcy, corruption and impotence. The
result is an intimate, startling and gripping account of the slow
destruction of Sachet, his family and his country.
