The Baghdad Blog

BY SALAM PAX

Brief Description:
In 2002, a young Iraqi calling himself Salam Pax began posting accounts of everyday life in Baghdad on to the Internet. Written in English, these blogs contained everything from musings on his CD collection to open criticism of Saddam's regime. Salam Pax's incisive and sharply funny diary entries soon attracted a worldwide readership. As the US-led force gathered to invade Iraq, Salam's diary became an extraordinary record of that event. The Baghdad Blog tells the story of the war in Iraq from inside that besieged country. It provides a gripping and wholly unique perspective on the conflict and its aftermath.
