Annisa, Daughter of Afghanistan Summary:
|
Set internationally and spanning two decades, Annisa is an emotion-packed adventure of appalling violence intermixed with a compelling love story. The highly educated and emancipated daughter of a Kabul University professor, Annisa attempts to escape Afghanistan after the Russian invasion. Raised without the veil, she discovers on this harrowing journey the roots of her culture and her own internal conflict regarding her role as a woman. Her friendship with a Russian deserter and a volunteer American doctor provides an intimate portrait of forces in her life that are staggeringly different. But it is her love for a captain in the Afghan army that drives her. In a society torn apart by terrorism, drug smuggling, and the ambitions of powerful international cartels, Annisa's story provides illuminating insights into the struggle of her people. |
