Life is difficult for eleven year old Fawad in Kabul. The Taliban is gone, but he still needs to work the streets to earn money to help support his mother. When his mother finds work cooking for a household of foreigners, Fawad has little idea how much his life will change. Living with the foreigners exposes Fawad to a variety of new ideas, but he remains true to his Afghan culture.
Told through young Fawad's eyes, this book provides a detailed look at life in Afghanistan in wake of the Taliban, of the struggle of the Afghan people to survive the turmoil that is today's Afghanistan. This is also a love story and a story about the collision of cultures. All of this is interpreted with great sympathy by our narrator. It is perhaps the most compelling portrait of the ongoing struggle to define a new country from the ruins caused by thirty years of conflict. In the end, this is a hopeful and optimistic look at Afghanistan and its people.
Andrea Busfield is a British journalist who first traveled to Afghanistan to cover the fall of the Taliban in 2001 as a reporter for the News of the World. She is now a full-time writer living in Bad Ischl, Austria. Born Under a Million Shadows is her first book.
