This riveting memoir chronicles the physical, emotional, and spiritual odys sey of Nelofer Pazira, the star of and inspiration for the internationally acclaimed film Kandahar. As the story of Nelofer's tumultuous childhood unf olds, the reader is drawn into a world spinning wildly out of control. Afte r the Communists assumed power and the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, Nelofer 's father, a respected Kabul physician and a committed social democrat, was imprisoned.

When a despo ndent Dyana's letters abruptly stopped coming, she traveled back to post-Ta liban Afghanistan determined to unlock the mystery of what happened to her friend.
