Donna, like you I am not primarily a myster reader, though that may
change with all these great suggestions. I'd like to suggest Bagdad
without a map, by Tony
Horwitz, and a new book by his wife, Geraldine Brooks, Nine parts of
desire. They are both nonfiction and about the middle East. Brooks and
Horwitz were reporters for the Wall Street Journal for a couple of
years,; their books are informative and entertaining. Rayna
