'A real-time, moving and intimate portrait of a year living under the Taliban, communicated via clandestine WhatsApp messages' DUA LIPA'S SERVICE95

'An intimate, courageous chronicle of life as it unfolds under Taliban rule' OBSERVER, BOOK OF THE DAY

'A hugely important book' BERNARDINE EVARISTO

'A deeply moving collective memoir' LYSE DOUCET

In August 2021, as the Taliban approached the gates of Kabul, twenty-one women writers in Afghanistan came online in their WhatsApp chat group: they asked what news others had heard and if everyone was safe.

These women had been brought together as a writing group. They were about to publish their first collection of short stories, while working regular day jobs. Some were students, some newly married, one was a grandmother: all were afraid of what was now to come. Over the next year, in the makeshift refuge of their WhatsApp group, they shared the day-to-day reality of life after a fall.

Publishing on the anniversary of the Fall of Kabul, this is the women's courageous collective diary: in it the writers watch cities transform, schools close, families change and freedoms disappear. They share stories of chaos, protest and flight - and of life continuing. Check-points are a daily trial; men start behaving differently. Children can't afford the ice-cream man's wares; passports are near impossible to obtain. Together, their messages form a powerful chorus of resistance and solidarity.

My Dear Kabul is one of the most powerful pieces of literature I have read in a long time. The writers experiences of the year following the fall of Kabul in 2021 are deeply moving and their love for their country runs so deep within their words. These women are so strong, intelligent and deeply kind and I felt my heart grow for each one of them more throughout listening to their experiences.

The writers stories have been so carefully pieced together, the dedicated work of the editors and translators involved in this book has given these incredible woman the platform they deserve to tell their stories.

Read this book, share it with friends and family - we must keep talking about the situation in Afghanistan and listen to the voices that matter most.

A MUST READ! The most beautiful and heartfelt writing from the Incredible Afghan Women. A desperately important book
