Arrows of Light: The Journeys of Afghan Women

More about the book

Perhaps you watched in horror with the rest of the world as Afghanistan was returned to the Taliban in August, 2021. No group was more greatly impacted by the return of Taliban rule than women, who had made great strides in the previous twenty years. Read their personal stories and essays and you'll find their heartfelt expressions of loss are a reminder that for many, their hearts are held captive by a country they can no longer safely call home. Open your heart to the universality of their experiences and the emotions shared. Photography and paintings showcased in the book enhance the personal connection to the writers, artists and photographers who contributed their work.
