Verlagsinformation / Editor's Information

Embark on a vivid journey of peace and understanding with The Peacemakers, a historical fiction graphic
novel that brings Pope Francis’s momentous 2021 visit to Baghdad to life. This captivating narrative,
woven through the bustling streets of Iraq’s capital, follows the footsteps of the Pope and then-Iraqi
President Barham Salih as they engage in profound interfaith dialogues, exploring Islam, Christianity,
and Judaism.

Each chapter in this beautifully illustrated novel delves into these Abrahamic religions' historical and
theoretical dimensions. The characters, ranging from leaders to local residents, engage in enlightening
discussions, seeking the threads that bind their faiths together in the tapestry of history. Their dialogues
are not just words on a page; they are bridges connecting cultures and hearts, offering readers a chance
to discover the shared values of love, respect, and peace.

The Peacemakers is more than a graphic novel; it’s an educational tool, complete with supplemental
materials that include facts, discussion questions, and group activities for each chapter. It’s a ready-
made curriculum for educators and dialogue facilitators to inspire interfaith workshops, deepen
knowledge, and foster unity.

Immerse yourself in the art and soul of interfaith dialogue. The Peacemakers is not just a reading experience
 — it’s a journey towards understanding and harmony.
