check Joseph Daher's articles and interviews; some are specific to
particular turning points or issues, but others are written as "the

Hi all,

I've got Anand Gopal's excellent piece from Harpers Magazine early on

anything more general?

You can download a copy of "Khiyana" here:

https://isqatannizam.files.wordpress.com/2016/10/khiyana.pdf

But for only $15, you can get a hard copy from Amazon. This makes it 
much easier to read plus that is about as low a price you are going to 
see for such a useful book.
