Zahrah Nasir's book should be essential reading for folks, especially Karachi folks, who wish to understand the human cost of the wars in Afghanistan, and the ensuing (and continuing) refugee crises. It is also a lesson in how to report on war with humaneness and empathy. And throughout all of this, we get glimpses of beautifully-worded insights into one part of an incredible woman's personal journey of survival, rebirth, growth, and the pursuit of joy and harmony. Really, everyone neeeeeds to read this book asap!
