Excellent cultural resource
This book is insightful and well written, full of depth and detail about Yemeni culture. I found it to be an invaluable resource the understanding context of the current conflict as well as the human dimension. I'm glad she wrote it!

Very interesting but narration annoying in places
Got tired of the ridiculous comic voice the narrator gives every Yemeni man in this, seems borderline racist really.
Still a very interesting and candid account by this young reporter

Sincerity
Laura Kasinof's sincerity and candour make this a deeply affecting introduction to Yemen's complexities. Skilful narration.
Seems the least we could do is find out a little bit about the people our governments send bombers to kill.
