A fascinating, personal and insightful account of the Iraq war from the bestselling author of THE BOOKSELLER OF KABUL

In January 2003 Åsne Seierstad entered Baghdad on a ten-day visa. She was to stay for over three months, reporting on the war and its aftermath. A Hundred and One Days is her compelling account of a city under siege, and a fascinating insight into the life of a foreign correspondent.
