Ā Iāve been on a big reinterpretation of Frankenstein kick so I had to read āFrankenstein in Baghdad,ā translated from Arabic. In the midst of the Iraq War a junk dealer begins to sow human body parts together from people killed in bombings. What follows is a gut wrenching tale of chase and pursuit, grief and saints, war and friendship, death and destruction. A powerful story about what it takes to create and maintain life in the worst of war zones.Ā
Moderate: Car accident, Classism, Colonisation, Death of parent, Religious bigotry, War, Body horror, Death, Gore, Grief, Islamophobia, Murder, and Physical abuse
