Please do some reading about violence in Lebanon during the 1980s. What were the origins of the conflict? What happened between 1982 and 1988? How does Hanan al-Shaykh attempt to unpack this conflict in The Story of Zahra and how is it tied to the protagonist and the trauma of her life? Please post a 400- to 600-word response here, along with a list of whatever online resources you accessed to read about this issue. This post is due on Monday, April 18th.
