Recalling the long tradition of Arabic folktales and the magical realism of Latin America, the stories in No Windmills in Basra reflect the title city’s sombre history of war, yet the fantastic and playful peek through, offering an astounding breadth of images within each story’s brief confines.
Diaa Jubaili was born in 1977 in Basra, Iraq, where he still lives. He is the award-winning author of several novels and three short story collections.
