Readers will find a far deeper understanding of this sad country and its suffering people.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Modern events sometime demand the reissue of a book published several years ago. Hirsh's internationally acclaimed 1986 novel, <i>Kabul</i>, provides an almost miraculous window into a country and its people that now have captured the world's attention. <p/>When the last Afghan king is deposed in the summer of 1973, the family of Omar Anwari, his loyal cabinet minister, is torn apart along with their country. Over seven turbulent years while Catherine, their American mother, struggles to hold them together, Mangal, the eldest son, breaks with his father to follow his own political conscience; daughter Saira in New York is torn between two cultures; and Tor, the youngest, most passionate of the three grows up to become perhaps the bravest of them all. <p/>An epic tale of civil war, political intrigue, and family tragedy, <i>Kabul</i> is a moving, insightful portrayal of a proud nation brought to chaos.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>M. E. Hirsh</b> has written for the <i>Boston Globe</i>, the <i>Washington Post</i>, and the <i>Los Angeles Times</i> on subjects ranging from Afghanistan to Native American affairs.
