Farewell Babylon
Naim Kattan
In this memoir, Naim Kattan returns to 1930s Baghdad, into an exotic world with its vibrant Jewish community. It is a portrait of a lost age, when Kurds, Bedouins, Jews, Muslims and Christians lived side by side. He recalls his discovery of literature and freedom, of women and love, and of the conflicts of roots and exiles.
