Greg Olear talks to the Arabist and cultural expert Diana Darke, author of “Stealing from the Saracens: How Islamic Architecture Shaped Europe” and a number of other books on the Middle East, on the history of Syria, the current situation with the Assad regime, and what Putin learned from Russia’s involvement. Plus: a new film by Stanley Kubrick.
