This volume is rich with tales of war, love, politics, censorship, and the search for self in a complex and conflicting Arab world at a critical time in its history. In a captivating style consistent with the nature of events narrated in the text, al-Sboul unveils the inner nature of social, political, and religious patterns of life in Arab society with an honesty and skill that renders \u003ci\u003eYou as of Today My Homeland\u003c\/i\u003e a testimony of human experiences that transcend the boundaries of time and place.\u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Michigan State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151884337392,"sku":"9781628952698","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781628952698_p0.jpg?v=1763870206","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781628952698","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
