My first book back in the 90s was a travel tip book. It was outdated by all the info about East Berlin I had written. I am updating it now, but have to take a few more trips through Europe by train for the research. Trains and other things have changed. My last trip was in March, but I still need at least one more.
9/11 changed a lot of opinions, but most of my family and friends still realize there are good and bad in every country. I have met Arabs in my travels that I truly liked. It is the religious fundamentalist Islam I am frightened of. Also, their treatment of women and girls upsets me.
I think your book would be ok as is. "The Kite Runner," was written by an Afgani. The book is very popular here. Anyway, if your book generates a lot of flak, you'll sell a lot of books and become famous. To waste all those words you've assembled would be a shame.
My brother worked in Saudi and I am picking his brain for info for a novel I'm writing. I don't usually write about places I have not been to, but this time I'm trying it.
