"The shepherd's cry
A lover is fearless, caring nothing for his life -
fearless of prison and the chain-block.
A lover's heart is like a hungry wolf,
fearless of the shepherd's cry."
Complemented by especially commissioned calligraphy, this volume offers rare insights into the soul of Afghanistan.
"A cry from the heart of a people who hope for a fairer and more secure future" - David Page, Afghanaid
