| Summary |
[In this volume, the author] allows the Khans [the bookseller of Kabul] to speak for themselves about their joys, sorrows, rivalries, loves, dreams, and temptations. Through this close-knit household, we gain an intimate view - as few outsiders have seen it - of life in an Islamic country just beginning to find its way between the forces of modernity and tradition.-Dust jacket. |
