About the book
The War of 33 is an intimate, personal and powerful telling of the story of the 2006 war in Lebanon. A series of letters written by Hanady Salman, a mother living through the war in Beirut, carve a narrative arc through the intense and haunting images of conflict. She tells the stories of her family and the people she lives the war with - the refugees, the wounded and the everyday Lebanese, struggling to maintain their sanity and their humanity during a time of war. What emerges is a universal story of love, pain, resistance and survival in the face of uncertainty and violence.
