Notes On A Foreign Country by Suzy Hansen
An American Abroad in a Post-American World
"Notes on a Foreign Country" is an introspective exploration of American influence abroad and the complex realities of U.S. foreign policy, as experienced by an American journalist living in Istanbul. The book delves into the author's personal journey of discovering the often-unseen impacts of American interventions and cultural dominance while grappling with her own identity and preconceptions as an American. Through her travels across the Middle East and her interactions with locals, she gains a deeper understanding of the historical and contemporary geopolitical landscape, challenging her and, by extension, the reader's understanding of America's role in the world.
