Includes Preliminary Page Author Dedication and Quotes; Foreword; Prologue; Epilogue and Acknowledgments. "Khorramshahr, Iran, May 1982 - It was the bloodiest battle of one of the most brutal wars of the twentieth century, and Najah, a twenty-nine-year-old wounded Iraqi conscript, was face to face with a thirteen-year-old Iranian child soldier who was ordered to kill him. Instead, the boy committed an astonishing act of mercy. It was an act that decades later would save his own life. This is a remarkable story. It is gut-wrenching, essential, and astonishing. It's a war story. A love story. A page-turner of vast moral dimensions. An eloquent and haunting act of witness to horrors beyond grimmest fiction, and a thing of towering beauty. More importantly, it is a story that must be told, and a richly textured view into an overlooked conflict and misunderstood region. This is the great untold story of the children and young men whose lives were sacrificed at the whim of vicious dictators and pointless, barbaric wars. Little has been written of the Iran-Iraq war, which was among the most brutal conflicts of the twentieth century, one fought with chemical weapons, ballistic missiles, and cadres of child soldiers. The numbers involved are staggering: All told, it claimed 700,000 lives - 200,000 Iraqis, and 500,000 Iranians; Young men of military service age - eighteen and above in Iraq, fiften and above in Iran - died in the greatest numbers; 80,000 Iranian child soldiers were killed, mostly between the ages of sixteen and seventeen; The two countries spent a combined 1.1 trillion dollars fighting the war. Rarely does this kind of reportage succeed so powerfully as literature. More rarely still does such searingly brilliant literature - fit to stand beside Remarque, Hemingway, and O'Brien - emerge from behind "enemy" lines. But Zahed, a child, and Najah, a young restauranteur, are rare men - not just survivors, but masterful, wondrously gifted storytellers. Written with award-winning journalist Meredith May, this is literature of a very high order, set down with passion, urgency, and consummate skill. This story is an affirmation that, in the end, it is our humanity that transcends politics and borders and saves us all." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "Their tale is quite remarkable . a fascinating - and ultimately uplifting - exploration of cultures unknown to many." - Kirkus. "This is a miracle tale - a vivid and wrenching story told by two soldiers who opposed each other on the battlefield, but through grace, courage, and an astonishing twist of fate, ultimately manage to save each other." - Sara Corbett, author. "To understand the rage in the Middle East, history should be told by individuals who lived it. I, Who Did Not Die is gut-wrenching, essential, shocking, and beautifully told. It is a rare examination of the absurdity of a war fought by children and young men who were victims of the brutal dictators they were forced to serve. This powerful tale of two men whose lives collide on the battlefield shows that acts of mercy are the ultimate triumph of compassion over hate. Absolutely required reading!" - Afschineh Latifi, author. …
