America and Iran: A History, 1720 to the Present by John Ghazvinian

In this fascinating history, John Ghazvinian traces the complex story of U.S.-Iran relations back to the Persian Empire of the eighteenth century.

War in the Age of Trump: The Defeat of ISIS, the Fall of the Kurds, the Conflict with Iran by Patrick Cockburn

Donald Trump may no longer be in office, but the impacts of his policies remain. In this book, Patrick Cockburn charts the period from the recapture of Mosul in 2017 to Turkey’s attack on Kurdish territory in November 2019, and recounts the new phase in the wars of disintegration that have plagued the region.

The Ardent Swarm: A Novel by Yamen Manai

Sidi lives a hermetic life as a bee whisperer, tending to his beloved “girls” on the outskirts of the desolate North African village of Nawa. He wakes one morning to find that a mysterious swarm of vicious hornets has decimated a hive. But where did they come from, and how can he stop them? Sidi ventures out to the big city and beyond in search of answers.

Along the way, he discovers a country and a people turned upside down by their new post–Arab Spring reality, as Islamic fundamentalists seek to influence votes any way they can on the eve of the country’s first democratic elections. To succeed in his quest, and find a glimmer of hope to protect all that he holds dear, Sidi will have to look further than he ever imagined.
