A Door in the Earth - Amy Waldman

A Door in the Earth - Amy Waldman

He and she read

Inspired by a book she has read, Mother Afghanistan, an Afghan-American Berkeley student travels to a small village in that country ostensibly to further her anthropological studies.  Reality crashes in on the romanticized view she has formed from the book.  


A fascinating story, with a good depiction of the life and culture of an isolated Afghan village as well as the American military role there.  I highly recommend this book.

He also really liked this book
