The product of some 18 months of reporting, [Fractured Lands] tells the story of the catastrophe that has fractured the Arab world since the invasion of Iraq 13 years ago, leading to the rise of ISIS and the global refugee crisis. The geography of this catastrophe is broad and its causes are many, but its consequences - war and uncertainty throughout the world - are familiar to us all. Scott Anderson's story gives the reader a visceral sense of how it all unfolded, through the eyes of six characters in Egypt, Libya, Syria, Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan.
[...] What follows is one of the most clear-eyed, powerful and human explanations of what has gone wrong in this region that you will ever read.'
- Jake Silverstein, Editor In Chief of the New York Times
