House of Stone: A Memoir of Home, Family, and a Lost Middle East by Anthony Shadid

3.0

Anthony Shadid was a wonderful writer and I enjoyed the book. It took me a while to sort out all the various family and members and friends and he moves constantly between the history of his family, the history of the Middle East, and his quest to restore his great grandfather's house. It was worth being patient as I felt he provided a perspective not often shared.
