Powerful and moving...bears comparison with George Orwell's Homage To Catalonia as a work of literature, Yazbek is a superb narrator...it may be that [she] has written one of the first political classics of the 21st century * Observer *
Brave, rebellious and passionate...Yazbek is no ordinary Syrian dissident * Financial Times *
An eloquent, gripping and harrowing account of the country's decline into barbarism by an incredibly brave Syrian * Irish Times *
Gripping... Does the important job of putting faces to the numbing numbers of Syria's crisis... * Economist *
Sheds valuable light on day-to-day life inside Syria, something of which we know little...a sobering glimpse of the wreckage that will be discovered when the war is over * Sunday Times *
