Richard, you are so kind to plug Homelands!!! Yes, the essay I wrote arose from the events of this summer, when my family in South Lebanon were trapped amidst the bombing, and we felt that all the progress Lebanon had made since the end of the civil war was destroyed. The editors called me in mid-July, not long after the bombing began, to ask if I would rewrite my piece based on the situation (the original essay was turned in April 1). I ended up writing a whole new piece.
I haven’t received my galley copy yet, so I haven’t read any of the other essays. I am looking forward to it. Again, thank you so much for this notice.
