The author, a major figure in 20th century international intellectual debates, dares to enter the discourses of war and politics, nationalism and gender, from a specifically internationalist feminist position."—Jane Marcus, author of Art and Anger: Reading like a Woman "To the canonical list of Crane, Sassoon, Remarque, and Malraux, we now must add Khalifa, Talib, and Nasrallah. These and other Arab women writers, Miriam Cooke reveals, have used their literary crafts to upset and destabilize the oddly comfortable codified 'War Story.' Cooke is a wonderful guide into their radically alternative visions of war and of the nation in whose name war is waged."—Cynthia Enloe
