The Afghanistan of yore,

from someone who was there

SOUTH FALLSBURG, NY — Local author Janice Minott, who spent nearly two years in Kabul in the ‘60s, will discuss her book “Letters from Kabul” at an event at The Arati Store from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 17. Minott paints an intimate portrait of an everyday Afghanistan just entering the 20th century, its peace soon to be shattered by decades of military conflict.

The author’s humorous and reflective letters make us privy to what the Muslim culture teaches one ordinary American family. Her poignant details of a culture vastly different from our own promise to awaken us to new perspectives as well.

Attendees can meet Minott, listen to her discuss her book, ask questions, have copies signed and partake of light refreshments.
