The catastrophic story of how the Arab world has descended into chaos since the 2003 United States invasion of Iraq as told by the National Book Critics Circle Award finalist and New York Times bestselling author of Lawrence in Arabia, a probing and insightful work of reportage.

In 2011, a series of anti-government uprisings shook the Middle East and North Africa in what would become known as the Arab Spring. Few could predict that these convulsions, initially hailed in the West as a triumph of democracy, would give way to brutal civil war, the terrors of the Islamic State, and a global refugee crisis. But, as New York Times bestselling author Scott Anderson shows, the seeds of catastrophe had been sown long before.

In this gripping account, Anderson examines the myriad complex causes of the region’s profound unraveling, tracing the ideological conflicts of the present to their origins in the United States invasion of Iraq in 2003 and beyond. From this investigation emerges a rare view into a land in upheaval through the eyes of six individuals—the matriarch of a dissident Egyptian family; a Libyan Air Force cadet with divided loyalties; a Kurdish physician from a prominent warrior clan; a Syrian university student caught in civil war; an Iraqi activist for women’s rights; and an Iraqi day laborer-turned-ISIS fighter. A probing and insightful work of reportage, Fractured Lands offers a penetrating portrait of the contemporary Arab world and brings the stunning realities of an unprecedented geopolitical tragedy into crystalline focus.

《阿拉伯的劳伦斯》作者安德森的新作，纪实文学，6个人、6条线索讲伊拉克战争、阿拉伯之chun、伊斯兰国等21世纪中东动荡。埃及自由派高知，库尔德独立战士，叙利亚大学生难民，利比亚革命老兵，伊拉克女权工作者，最牛的是采访了一位伊斯兰国老兵。中文版稍晚推出。
