Networks of Conversations

Lawrence Wright had a great (true) story about hostages in the Middle East in the July 6-13, 2015 issue of The New Yorker magazine (Article).  While reading it, I found myself making a map of the players involved, and the role of hostage families in working toward their release. This 3-page article includes the “players list”, the map of the network of conversations, and a little information about the relationships between key players.
