{"product_id":"i-nadia-wife-of-a-edmund-burke-iii-9780803271241","title":"I, Nadia, Wife of a Terrorist","description":"The Algerian journalist Baya Gacemi takes a dangerous political step in writing the \"autobiography\" of a young Algerian woman whom she met through a program for female victims of Islamist violence in Algiers. Nadia, from a small town in central Algeria that has been especially affected by the struggle between Islamist terrorists and the authorities, married a local hooligan whose rebellious spirit she found irresistible. Unfortunately, her husband was already transforming himself from petty criminal to foot soldier and then local emir of the Islamic Action Group. Nadia's ensuing nightmare lasted over four years. As a result of the growing polarization between Islamists and the local government Nadia had become an outcast reviled by relatives and threatened by neighbors. \u003cp\u003eBy 1996, with Nadia pregnant and destitute and her husband hunted by government agents, her parents expelled her from their home. Gacemi provides a human face to the cultural wars that have torn Algeria and the Middle East apart, revealing the roots of terrorism and the impact of the nightmarish struggle of the women caught up in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edmund Burke III, Baya Gacemi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0803271247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803271241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.48h x 5.54w x 0.43d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/10\/2006 pg. 61\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2006 pg. 390\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2006 pg. 66\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2006 pg. 41\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulticultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 57","brand":"Edmund Burke III","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47202168209663,"sku":"9780803271241","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_63490db2-b5b8-40c8-b611-cebb722770a9.jpg?v=1756819826","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/i-nadia-wife-of-a-edmund-burke-iii-9780803271241","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
