Helpful Score: 2

A very readable and enlightening look at modern-day Afghanistan though the eyes of an American woman who started as a relief worker, but who stayed to teach beautician skills to several classes of Afghani women, and married an Afghani man. The book tells amazing tales of modern problems in the country, but never in an overblown or maudlin way. It explores the Afghan life and, to a lesser extent, the Western population as well. The book was quite approachable and I enjoyed it.
