[Seierstad] manages to achieve a rare intimacy' New York Times'Åsne Seierstad is one of the greatest, most courageous journalists of our time.

. . This is an important, heartbreaking book' Eric Schlosser, author of Fast Food Nation From the internationally bestselling author of The Bookseller of Kabul, this is an unforgettable portrait of three people living under the Taliban today. There is Jamila, a women's rights activist who got an education when few women could; Bashir, a Taliban commander who grew up eager to avenge a father killed by security forces; and Ariana, a law student who is now barred from her university and facing the prospect of an arranged marriage to a man she does not love.

Through the stories of these three Afghans, we experience what it is to live under the Taliban now, and think about where this leaves Afghans today, and tomorrow.
