IraqiGirl is a teenage blogger from Mosul, Iraq, writing as the chaos and violence of military occupation unfolds in the aftermath of the US-led invasion. In a narrative charged with anger, IraqiGirl wants her readers to know what her life is really like, allowing them to discover a story of lives shattered and hearts broken that the Western media rarely shows. But readers also discover through her personal reflections on family, friends, community, the determination of one girl not only to survive, but to find, amidst the devastation, a future worth fighting for.
IraqiGirl was fifteen years old in 2004-2005 and living in Mosul, Iraq, when she began blogging the story of her life under American occupation.
