An intimate account of the 2024 Lebanon war, written by a father, husband, and doctor, offering a profound sense of the existential uncertainty together with the ordinary day-to-day dimensions of war
On 17 September 2024, three thousand bomblets exploded among the Lebanese civilian population, in what became the opening strike for a war launched by Israel. This latest round of war by Israel on Lebanon would last seventy-one days, and this book is the first personal account of the conflict from Lebanon. Written as a diary from the viewpoint of a Lebanese-Australian medical doctor who returned to Lebanon in 2023 after living all his adult life overseas, it covers the initial hectic days following the pager attacks, progressing to the systematic bombing of Beirut and the population displacement and complete obliteration of the southern Lebanese towns and villages. In this day-by-day account, Hicham Cheikh Hassan paints the atmosphere in Beirut and Lebanon as the war unfolded. As a medical doctor, he was exposed to the effects of Israel bombing residential areas, and as a father and husband, he tried to determine what was best for his young family. The Day the Pagers Exploded also covers the complete split between the unfolding reality on the ground and the discourse at the political level along with the information chosen to be portrayed in Western mainstream media.外文書商品之書封,為出版社提供之樣本。實際出貨商品,以出版社所提供之現有版本為主。部份書籍,因出版社供應狀況特殊,匯率將依實際狀況做調整。
