Join Dartmouth Libraries for a reading by Tarek El-Ariss (James Wright Professor and Chair of Middle Eastern Studies) from his recently published memoir, Water on Fire: A Memoir of War. This work has been described by Alaa Al Aswany, author of The Yacoubian Building, as a "beautifully written book" in which the author "takes his reader on a journey of discovery of one's identity, commitment to humanity, and sorrows and ambitions, drawing a vivid picture of life at war from Beirut to New York." The reading will be followed by a Q&A.
