Features: The Return to Baghdad is another major work by Tang Shicheng following I Climbed into the Pyramids and I Came Back from the Battlefield. On the 10th anniversary of the Gulf War, the author returned to Iraq, once again risking his life to interview the Iraqi people suffering in hardship. Like his previous two books, the text remains as powerful, the writing as humorous, the knowledge as profound, and the stories as deeply moving, with photographs as striking. What differs from the earlier books is that this one reflects more profoundly on humanistic concern, as well as rational thinking about the fate of humanity in the 21st century.
