Sobre IBD

Poet Ahmad Al-Khatat relates his experiences and observations of a trip to his country of Iraq. This is poetry that sinks your heart yet uplifts your soul. A heart felt paen to an irretrievably broken hometown. Through Al-Khatat’s powerful poetic visions we are afforded an insider’s view, a native tour guide of sorts, to the pain and beauty, the reality of Baghdad, of Iraq today.
