About the Author

Eli Amir was born in Baghdad in 1937 and, with most of the Iraqi-Jewish community, left for Israel in 1950. His earlier novel The Dove Flyer was published in English in 2010 and was shortlisted for The Jewish Quarterly/Wingate Prize 2011. The Jewish Chronicle wrote: "Amir paints a throbbing, colourful picture of Baghdad with its soothsayers, rabbis, sheikhs, prostitutes, revolutionaries, Zionists and princes. But, ultimately like the wings of a dove, the dreams of all the main characters are broken as they go into exile. 'I write to show the pain, the sorrow, the insult, of losing a homeland,' says Amir." A social activist, as well as a prize-winning author, Eli Amir said in Cairo on the Arabic publication of Yasmine: "How can there be peace without us knowing each other?"
