| The London Circle | 17 May 2025

With a mixture of romance, medicine, politics, religion and history, Murjana is a novel that speaks of a fascinating time and place, but with unmistakable parallels with the here and now.

Whether motivated by the illegal war and occupation against Iraq in 2003, or even the chaotic state of the world today, Dr. Ghada Karmi writes a beautiful tale that has many truths for today’s readers. Baghdad, the capital of the world and the cradle of one of the most fascinating civilisations in history, sees the unfolding of events that speak of everything, but tells of how the distortion of history and memory can be one of the cruelest crimes committed against man.

In this episode, she speaks with Anas Altikriti about her latest book.
