Book
Brothers of the gun : a memoir of the Syrian war / Marwan Hisham and Molly Crabapple ; illustrations by Molly Crabapple.
This is the story of a young man coming of age during the Syrian war from its inception to the present. Marwan Hisham became a journalist by courageously tweeting out news from a city under siege by ISIS, the Russians, and the Americans, all at once. He watched the country that ran through his veins be destroyed in front of him, and eventually joined the relentless stream of refugees risking their lives to escape. This is a story of pragmatism and idealism, impossible violence and repression, and, even in the midst of war, profound acts of courage, creativity, and hope.
