Destiny Disrupted: A History of the World Through Islamic Eyes September 17, 2009

Co-sponsored by Voices of Our Nations Arts Foundation

Hosted by poet and playwright, Elmaz Abinader
Tamim Ansary’s vivid history, Destiny Disrupted, provides context for anyone interested in the Middle East. From Islam’s beginnings in the 7th Century, to the Crusades, to the Arab-Israeli conflict, Ansary ties it all together with wit and a remarkable gift for story-telling. This book offers a different, and a much needed perspective on a religion and culture that’s often poorly understood in the Judeo-Christian world.
