Overview: Recounts the 1982 siege of Beirut by the Israeli Army and describes the pain suffering caused by the fighting.
The book was focused on the Israeli siege and bombing of Beirut during the 1982 Lebanon War, but documented the city from the outbreak in 1975 of a Civil War. In the book’s opening pages, Clifton wrote that the book was biased against Israel’s government, saying that “God Cried is not objective and could never have been.” Clifton compared actions of the Israel armed forces to those of Nazis in the Second World War.
God Cried was a collaboration between Tony Clifton, an Australian journalist, and Catherine Leroy, a French photographer. The two had lived in Beirut since 1985. Clifton wrote the book, while Leroy contributed photographs. While on a promotional tour for the book, Clifton said that he chose to collaborate with Leroy out of hopes that her photography would provide irrefutable support for his narrative
