...mice, was an old drum with an uncharacteristic burnt-black bottom hole ("As if it had been used like a cannon," Parfitt notes), the remains of carrying rings on its corners; and a raised relief of crossed reeds that Parfitt thinks reflects an Old Testament detail.

...wall of that Baghdad police station reminded me of the pictures and notes on walls in downtown Manhattan after 9/11. The desperation and sorrow of people whose loved ones have disappeared is very familiar.
