{"product_id":"glad-tidings-of-benevolence","title":"Glad Tidings of Benevolence","description":"Twenty years ago, Moises Saman was working in Iraq as a photojournalist during the US-led \ninvasion and occupation. Glad Tidings of Benevolence combines his photographs taken during \nthis period and the following years with disparate documentation and texts. Collectively, these \nmaterials raise questions about the complex representation of war, competing narratives and the \ntruths buried within the clamour—at a time when the war begins to recede from global public \nmemory.\n‘My photographs are not meant to represent an objective account of the Iraq war against which \nto compare the textual references. Rather, the book grapples with my own role and power as a \nnarrator - particularly one with access to foreign publications - and the biases and limitations \ninevitably embedded in my work.’\nSaman began working as a newspaper photographer in Iraq just before the invasion. He has \ncovered the US occupation and withdrawal, displacement, ethnic cleansing and other human \nrights and humanitarian crises, governance issues and the rise and fall of ISIS.","brand":"GOST Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54223087960408,"sku":"9781910401736","price":77.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781910401736_f6fb3a40-df38-4ed9-b2d2-213c12ab006d.jpg?v=1764722734","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/glad-tidings-of-benevolence","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
