2,155 civilians and Iraqi security forces have been killed. In one month. Last month.

Book about life in Baghdad's Green Zone wins Samuel Johnson Prize for nonfiction

Mon Jun 18, 6:53 PM

LONDON (AP) - A vivid account of life inside Baghdad's Green Zone won Britain's richest nonfiction book prize on Monday.

"Imperial Life in the Emerald City," by Rajiv Chandrasekaran, bureau chief in Baghdad for the Washington Post from April 2003 to October 2004, took the US$60,000 Samuel Johnson Prize for Nonfiction.

 

The book paints a picture of waste, incompetence and thwarted intentions within the Coalition Provisional Authority appointed to run U.S.-occupied Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. It contrasts life in the heavily fortified Green Zone with the chaos unfolding outside.
