5.0 out of 5 stars This is reality, May 6, 2002

This review is from: Unveiled: Voices of Women in Afghanistan (Hardcover)

At a time when Americans are living war and its aftermath in Afghanistan as a combo of reality-TV show and second-tier video game, the book's powerful text and visuals will remind all of us that these are real people and real lives that were damaged and destroyed. But the most powerful message is probably one of hope; the author's main achievement is to exhibit the unimaginable strength in all the so-called victims, which may well help them be the winners after all...

5.0 out of 5 stars unveiled: voices of women in afghanistan, April 25, 2002

scott sandat (uk) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Unveiled: Voices of Women in Afghanistan (Hardcover)

This book brillantly tells the other side of the story. The photos illustrates the changing times of Kabul and the repression that these poor women have had to and continue to suffer. This is the best book that I have read on the conflict and the taliban regimes abuse of the citizens of Afghanistan.
