The Life of Tilkepnaye: A 12 Month Study of Native Chaldean Catholics in Their Hometown of Tilkepe

By Michael J Bazzi

"In The Life of Tilkepnaye, Bazzi describes the events of a calendar year in the village of Tilkepe, Iraq. From the village of Tilkepe, himself a Tilkpenaye, Bazzi uses first hand information to share the events. As a priest, Fr. Michael is keenly aware of how the liturgical calendar affects the occurrences within the lives of the villagers. The events Bazzi describes describe the lifestyle prior to the invasion of ISIS. Bazzi describes how the makeup of the village has changed since the invasion. In his appendix, Bazzi includes three valuable resources from Tilkepe: a poem on beans, a song about the relationship between in-laws, and a section on Chaldean proverbs passed down over the millenia"--
