The paperback is now out. At a time when the Middle East is once again in turmoil, immodestly I suggest you take a look at my book to see how the region ended up the way it is. Also available as an audiobook.
Picador just sent first copies of my new book, published on 1st Sept. It follows my BBC series Our Man in the Middle East. Ridiculously proud that I took most of the photos, including the jacket. If you need one book to help you navigate the Mideast, I hope it will be this one.

I wondered if the advance would stall. Not yet. Syrian army seems to be crumbling.
Incredible developments. First Aleppo, now Hama. I suspect next stop is Homs, where the battle is likely to be a lot more intense because of the city’s makeup, recent history, location and neighboring areas. Will Hezb and allied militias wage there the fight they did not in

Horrifying scenes unfolding in Gaza, amidst conflict, relentless Israeli strikes & an ever-worsening humanitarian crisis. I condemn the continuing attacks on civilians. Hostages must be freed, displacement of Palestinians must cease, & civilians must be protected. My Statement👇
