This book is a journey into the country of that Kabuliwala, undertaken by the author in 1977. At the age of twenty-three, with limited resources and a deep passion, the author has collected memories from his travels on foot and in buses, along with a wealth of historical and geographical information and facts. Reading it against todays backdrop offers a unique sense of comfort, and its essential to understand what the past four decades have taken away from this country, once one of the worlds most beautiful places and a land of many religions. This description of Afghanistan before it became a pawn in the bloody game of the worlds major military powers evokes the feeling of listening to songs from Raj Kapoors films, in thick, soft warm clothes, with a cup of lukewarm tea in hand, amidst the snowy valleys and mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sarthak (An Imprint of Rajkamal Prakashan)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45871176286406,"sku":"DADAX9390971381","price":13.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/614eUVSvOqL.jpg?v=1779466421","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/afghanistan-se-khatokitabat","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
