Her wanderings with other Kabulis reveal a fragile city in a state of flux: stricken by near-constant war, but flickering with the promise of peace; governed by age-old codes but experimenting with new modes of living. Her walks take her to the unvisited tombs of the dead, and to the land of the living - like the booksellers, archaeologists, film-makers and entrepreneurs who are remaking this 3,000-year-old city. And as NATO troops begin to withdraw from the country, Khan watches the cycle of transformation begin again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinner of the Stanford Dolman Travel Book of the Year Award 2021\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinner of the Tata Literature Live First Book Award for Non-Fiction 2020\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePowerfully evocative Kapka Kassabova\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA wonderful journey\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAtiq Rahimi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKhan illuminates Kabul's life-affirming humanity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTLS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 398g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 219 x 143 x 27 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781784742287                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taran Khan","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":43564564316410,"sku":"9781784742287","price":12.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/000382676430b77f6951e78b6881dcb5.jpg?v=1627700864","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/shadow-city-a-woman-walks-kabul-1","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
