- Book review 🧵👇🏽 ‘Between Two Rivers’ by @moudhy.bsky.social I finally got a moment this weekend to sit down and finish the last chapter. I’ve been holding off because, I didn’t want it to end. What a wonderful journey across time this book is. Probably my favourite book I’ve read in last 5 years.
- Of course, I am biased here. I’m a big fan of @moudhy.bsky.social work AND I am a direct descendant of the people this book is about (I’m Assyrian). But this book taught me more about my own ancestors than my parents, the internet and our church (when I was a kid) ever did — through their words.
- I had goosebumps as each chapter ended. My brain was like a Time Machine that transported me back to be an observer in each of these stories — just there, present and watching the daily lives of the people of Mesopotamia. Their joys, struggles, thinking, pain, learnings, marvel and communications.Apr 12, 2025 05:14
