Kabul in Winter

Set against the backdrop of post-war Kabul, the book offers a powerful exploration of the lives of its residents through the eyes of journalist and activist Ann Jones. Her firsthand experiences in humanitarian aid illuminate the stark contrasts between the promised democracy and the lingering influence of warlords. By focusing on the stories of women and men, particularly in the context of education and imprisonment, Jones paints a vivid picture of a city grappling with its identity and future amidst ongoing challenges.
