Fear no more: Voices of the Tunisian Revolution
No Customer Reviews
On December 17, 2010, Mohamed Bouazizi, a young street vendor in a small Tunisian city, set himself on fire to protest against continued harassment from the police. It was the spark that triggered the extraordinary revolution that would shake the entire Arab World.
This book chronicles the events that developed during the 30 days following Bouazizi's tragic gesture, documenting the succession of events, by giving a voice to the families of the so called 'martyrs of the revolution': lawyers, artists, bloggers, journalists and regular citizens. It is a fast-tracked chronological mix of real stories, building a revolutionary momentum, together with a selection of messages that appeared on social media - a veritable virtual arena in which protestors could join the uprising.
A truly collaborative work, Fear No More was written by a young couple living with their kids two blocks away from the Presidential Palace, and blends the sensibilities and perspectives of an anthropologist and an economist, into a multi-colored chronicle which bears witness to their own emotions of being at once observers and protagonists of one of the most exciting pages of world history.
