A unique on-the-ground view of the city' GuardianOne of the first things I was told when I arrived in Kabul was never to walk...When journalist Taran Khan arrives in Kabul, she uncovers a place that defies her expectations. Her wanderings with other Kabulis reveal a fragile city in a state of flux: stricken by near-constant war, but flickering with the promise of peace, governed by age-old codes but experimenting with new modes of living.Her walks take her to the unvisited tombs of the dead, and to the land of the living - like the booksellers, archaeologists, film-makers and entrepreneurs who are remaking this 3, 000-year-old city. And as NATO troops begin to withdraw from the country, Khan watches the cycle of transformation begin again.'A wonderful journey' Atiq Rahimi'Khan illuminates [Kabul's] life-affirming humanity' TLS
