The Kakais are a Kurdish-speaking indigenous population belonging to the Yarsan religion, originating from the Zagros Mountains in present-day Northern Iraq. There are currently around 200,000 Kakais in Iraq, but due to a history of heavy persecution, including targeting by ISIS, the community is under threat of disappearing.
This book is based on historical research, interviews, and in-depth fieldwork, as well as on their available original texts.

It touches on recent events affecting them and calls for international support and recognition of the Kakai community's unique challenges.
