Under a simple title, it unveils the mesmerisingly complex journey of the Tunisians towards their democracy-in-the-making... Sadiki and Saleh's carefully crafted narrative reveals the components that unlock for readers a more nuanced understanding of how political change occurs, including through a revolution, in the country which is still in the process of transformation. * Elena Korosteleva, LSE Review of Books *
