9/11 viewed from a Muslim country
Peace Corps Writers Online has a great essay entitled Le Onze Septembre. It was written by Matt Brown who, like me, was a Peace Corps volunteer in Guinea. Except Brown was in Guinea when the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He recounts how he experienced that national tragedy thousands of miles away from home in an overwhelmingly Muslim country. It's a very personal account and very much worth a read.
