Description
Translated from the English book of the same time Aliaa’s Mission: Saving the Books of Iraq.
The story tells about a different kind of superhero. It is based on true events in the life of a real person, who shows us it’s not necessary to see through walls or fly or have any superpowers to be a real-life hero.
Inspired by a true story, Aliaa’s Mission is the dramatic account of Alia Muhammad Baker, the chief librarian of the Central Library in Basra, who undertook a mission of epic proportions. It is 2003. As the war in Iraq draws closer and closer to Basra, Alia grows increasingly fearful that the irreplaceable treasures of her library are in grave danger. Her pleas to government officials go ignored, so Alia comes up with a plan of her own. Determined to preserve the history and culture of her people, Alia, with the help of her neighbors, who assist her at the risk of their own lives, smuggles over 30,000 precious volumes to safety. Told in dramatic graphic-novel panels by renowned cartoonist Mark Alan Stamaty, Aliaa’s Mission celebrates the importance of books and the freedom to read while examining the impact of war on a country and its people.
مهمة السيدة علية: إنقاذ كتب العراق. القصة التى سوف تقرؤها تتحدث عن نوع مختلف من البطولة الخارقة، والقصة تستند إلي وقائع حقيقية فى حياة شخص حقيقى، ويثبت لنا هذا الشخص انه لا يلزم للإنسان أن ينفذ ببصره من خلال الجدران أو أن يتمتع بقوى خارقة على الإطلاق حتى يصبح بطلاً فى الحياة الحقيقية. و مهمة السيدة علية، قصة مستوحاة من أحداث حقيقية....
وهى تقدم سردًا مثيرًا لما فعلته علية محمد بكر، كبيرة أمناء المكتبة المركزية فى مدينة البصرة العراقية، وهي التي قامت بمهمة ذات أبعاد ملحمية. نحن فى عام 2003، والحرب في العراق تقترب حثيثًا من البصرة، وخوف علية يزداد من الخطر الداهم الذي تتعرض له كنوز مكتبتها التي لا تُعوض، أما الالتماسات التى قدمتها إلي المسؤولين الحكوميين فقد كان مصيرها التجاهل، وهنا تضع علية خطة خاصة بها، و قد صح عزمها على الحفاظ على تاريخ شعبها وثقافته. وتتلقى علية العون من جيرانها الذين يساعدونها مخاطرين بأرواحهم، و تنجح في تسريب ما يزيد على 30,000 مجلد ثمين و إنقاذها. ويحكي القصة الرسام الشهير مارك ألان ستاماتي، في رسوم متوالية مثيرة. وقصة مهمة السيدة علية تؤكد وتعلى من أهمية الكتب وحرية القراءة إلى جانب النظر فى تأثير الحرب فى بلد من البلدان و فى شعبه.
