'This is my story, the story of an Arab woman. It is the story of a lost world...' So opens
A World I Loved, the haunting memoir of Wadad Makdisi Cortas, an ordinary woman who lived through and chronicled one of the most tumultuous periods in recent world history. Played out to a backdrop of images from across Wadad's turbulent century,
A World I Loved is a poignant elegy for a lost epoch and a vanishing dream. Yet it is also an uplifting meditation on family, memory, homeland and community.
