This remarkable memoir introduces the reader to ordinary women – and their families – living in remote villages of the Hazara Jat region and in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif. Author, Mary Smith spent several years in Afghanistan working for a small mother and child health project, often spending months at a time with her young son in the villages where she shared the hopes, fears, laughter and tears of the women who became her friends.
5* Amazon review: “What we know of Afghanistan is a tiny fraction of the life led by millions in a country that has been at war for decades. But underneath this are the lives of ordinary women who just get on with bringing up their children and hoping for a better future. Enlightening, funny and sad. A little glimpse into this incredible country.” – Selina Vessey-Hague
