An Intimate Journey Through Baghdad’s Past and Present
A Stranger in Baghdad brings to life a vanished world through the lives of Mona Haddad, an Anglo-Iraqi psychiatrist in London, and her mother Diane, an Englishwoman who navigated love, suspicion, and exile in 1930s Baghdad. When a mysterious visitor arrives at Mona’s office, hidden truths about her family’s life before they fled Iraq begin to unfold. Through sweeping, intergenerational drama, Elizabeth Loudon invites readers into a richly layered story of love, loyalty, and resilience, set against the backdrop of mid-20th century Baghdad.
