Winner of the Hay Festival Award for ProseIn May of 2012, Janine di Giovanni travelled to Syria, marking the beginning of a long relationship with the country, as she began reporting from both sides of the conflict, witnessing its descent into one of the most brutal, internecine conflicts in recent history. Drawn to the stories of ordinary people caught up in the fighting, Syria came to consume her every moment, her every emotion.Speaking to those directly involved in the war, di Giovanni relays the personal stories of rebel fighters thrown in jail at the least provocation; of children and families forced to watch loved ones taken and killed by regime forces with dubious justifications; and the stories of the elite, holding pool parties in Damascus hotels, trying to deny the human consequences of the nearby shelling.Delivered with passion, fearlessness and sensitivity, The Morning They Came for Us is an unflinching account of a nation on the brink of disintegration, charting an apocalyptic but at times tender story of life in a jihadist war — and an unforgettable testament to human resilience in the face of devastating, unimaginable horrors.

    Salat is the obligatory Muslim prayers, performed five times each day by the devout. The first, called Salat al-Fajr, is at dawn. Prayer takes place again at midday after the sun passes higher. This is called Salat al-Zuhr. Salat al-Asr comes in the late part of the afternoon, Salat al-Maghrib soon after sunset, and finally the Salat al-Isha between sunset and midnight.
