...sister, her story would have a little more depth. But it becomes clear that, deep down, Nonie cannot be jealous of a selfless gift (that of children)from her sister. The narrators on a whole are nauseatingly blameless, and in another novel a compelling plot would pick up the slack.

Maliki, 58, hardly looks the part. With his permanent five-o'clock shadow and slack posture, he seems no more tyrannical than a demotivated schoolteacher, an impression underscored by his toneless speaking style. But there's no denying that his stature has increased. "I didn't know he had it in him," says Ridha Jawad Taki, a Shi'ite parliamentarian who has known Maliki since the 1980s, when both lived in Syria. "He has become self-assured, and very decisive." Those qualities were burnished in November, when Maliki overcame considerable opposition within Iraq's parliament to sign an agreement with...
