Refugee on a Pendulum is Jemil Metti's fourth book he has written; all except one are novels. Diversity has not only defined his upbringing as a person, but has shaped his unique views of the world. Metti's social and educational development in Lebanon, Iraq and the U.S. played a pivotal role in structuring and shaping his diverse and complex characters introduced in his stories; choreographed by the impact of settings in the epic centers of contemporary Middle Eastern conflicts. His work reinforces and encourages the global thread of universality pulling nations together, he asserts, based on humanistic principles instead of the deceptive appeals of cultural isolationism.Metti received an American Jesuit education at Baghdad College High School. His B.A., M.A, and Ed.D. degrees were completed at Northern Illinois University, S.U.N.Y-Binghamton, and Detroit's Wayne State University respectively.
