The Edge of War























“The Edge of War: Kuwaiti's Underground Resistance, Khafji 1990-1991” by Alex Darwin. The people who put their lives on the line tell you their story.

Anyone read this yet? Need some good books for the summer hols, any suggestions?

Have read-

White Tiger (utterly brilliant)
Kite Runner (a must read book)
1000 Splendid Suns (once you read Kite Runner you want more of Khalid Hosseini)
and many more.

Need something fabulous for lounging by the pool.

  2. Thanks Maxine will do. No I've not heard of him before either but I am interested in the subject matter.
    I have Lolita in Tehran and a few others lined up but want something riveting.
