Islamic State in Translation
«Mustafa’s knowledgeable and unflinchingly honest analysis offers a unique perspective on the narratives created and circulated by ‘IS’ and the responses in the media. Theoretically rigorous, the book contributes fresh insights into the translation of extremist political and religious narratives in multimodal contexts.»
Gabriela Saldanha, Lecturer in Translation Studies, University of Oslo, Norway

«Balsam Mustafa's book is a triumph not only of scholarship but also of understanding and decency. Through her navigation of the Islamic State in political, social, and cultural contexts -using ISIS's words, videos, and the cruelest of its actions - she offers a comprehension that points us to a response for humanity against violence and killing.»
